Windows 10: how to had a windows app to the navigation pane in File Explorer ?

Hello, for the last couple of years Ive been able to plug in a document photo scanner ( Ipevo Ziggi HD Plus ) into my usb port and the windows 10 camera app would come up in the navigation pane in file explorer.
For some reason now when I plug in the document photo scanner the camera app does not appear in the navigation pane. I had up dated my windows 10 OS and divers as well so Im not sure what triggered the change.
If I click on the camera app icon from the windows icon I can switch between the web cam on my laptop and the document photo scanner no problems at all. Everything works fine.
My issue is that when I am using accounting software I have always been able to click on upload files from the accounting software menu. File Explorer would pop up and then I could click on the camera link from the navigation pane then take a photo of a document and up load it directly into the accounting program.
My question, is there away I can have the windows camera permanently added to the navigation pane in File Explorer? If so, how do I do this ?
Attached is a screen shot of were the camera use to appear in file explorer.
Win 10 home OS build 19041.508
camera app. Microsoft Corp Version 2020.504.40.0 (URI microsoft.windows.camera

Not able to open sub-folders from navigation pane in File explorer.

Hi,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We will assist you in resolving the issue.



Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

• Under which drive are you not able to view the sub folders?
• Are you not able to expand the options from navigation pane of the File explorer?

This seems to be a temporary issue. Sometimes disabling and enabling some of the options will fix the issue.



Follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.

• Open File explorer by pressing Windows key + E keys on the keyboard.
• Click on View tab located at the top of the window.
• Click on Navigation pane and uncheck Navigation pane option.
• Close the window, follow the above steps from a to
  c, only this time check the option Navigation pane and check if the changes are effective.

Navigation pane in File Explorer always opens to the bottom

How are your Navigation Pane options set?





You don't have Expand to currrent folder sleected, do you?

If you:

1. Open Explorer with WInKey+E
2. Collapse the Navigation Pane
3. close & re-open Explorer

Does it open with the Navigation Pane collapsed? If so, close Explorer & open regedt. Navigate to:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Modules\NavPane

RIght-click the NavPane "folder", select Permissions... > Advanced and add a Deny Set Value entry for your Username:




If the Navigation Pane opened expanded even after collapsing, try deleting the ExpandedState value under the NavPane key. Repeat the test. If suceesful, perform the above permissions mod.

 

OneDrive missing from Windows Explorer navigation pane

When I first cleaned installed Windows 10 v1809 on my machine I applied a Group Policy setting for OneDrive to Prevent the Usage of OneDrive for File Storage to ENABLED. Of course, that would remove the OneDrive from the left side navigation pane within Windows File Explorer. But now, I set the Group Policy back to NOT CONFIGURED, rebooted the machine and the OneDrive is still missing from the the left side of the Windows File Explorer navigation pane as shown in my image. I even performed the command GPUPDATE /FORCE.

My laptop is a standalone, not part of a Domain.

I tried all the things listed from the article below but with no luck. I also was able to sign in with my OneDrive account and that was all fine and OneDrive appeared on the File Explorer pane. But once I UNLINKED my account from OneDrive, the OneDrive was still missing.

Even if no Group Policies are set, and even NOT signing into OneDrive, by default, the OneDrive icon should still appear on the left side navigation pane when launching Windows File Explorer.

And suggestions?

My guess is to recreate my user profile, but I don't really want to do that now.
