    How do I change what locations appear in Windows Explorer [​IMG]
    (BARS ON THE LEFT *Biggrin)Hello guys I'm looking to customize what appears in the quick access menu and I am also looking to give Google Drive it's own drop down menu (not in quick access), is there some folder options that I can change somewhere to customize these things?

    How do I get the file explorer icon to appear in the task bar in Windows 10?

    I do not have the file explorer icon on the desktop task bar. "Getting started" assumes it is there and gives no clue about how to get it there.

    Hi,

    Do you see the File Explorer option when you click on Start? If yes, right click on the File Explorer and click on Pin to taskbar.

    If you don't see File Explorer option, type File Explorer in the search and right click on it and select Pin to taskbar.

    Hope it helps. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to reply. We will be glad to assist you.
