    how to make "this pc" a icon in quick acess frequent folders


    HiThis probably seems silly, but here goes. When I open quick access, to get to my drives, I need to first click the desktop this pc option and then click this pc again to get to my drives. How can I make a shortcut directly to my drives?ThanksRick

    :)

    Quick access frequent folder and recent files title missing

    Today I have encountered the quick access bar displaying the list of the icons (1st picture) instead of the normal list where the frequent folders and recent files are separated (2nd picture). I have unchecked and checked the boxes under privacy and this has still not sorted this issue.

    Any ideas?

    Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

    Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

    • I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.


    • Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
    That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

    Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.

    Quick acess Desktop shortcut problem

    So, I started to use Quick Acess and everything seemed ok. But the thing is that, the 'Desktop' shortcut isn't showing my own desktop. It's only showing my program/games icons. Can you guys help me?

    Right now, it looks like this:

    Quick Acess not working (tried everything): I'm having some issues with Quick Acess. It's still not working, I can't pin things to it at all and it's just empty. I've tried deleting the files that are in the APPDATA both manually and with CMD. If I have to reinstall Win 10 again I am just going back to 7. 47075
