    How to remove items in File Explorer that I no longer have access to


    Recently I moved some external hard drives from one computer to another on the same network.


    In File Explorer, the shared file folders are still located on the Network. See Picture for details:

    "Matrix" is my computer that I am using that previously had these folders locally the external drives these folders are on were directly connected to my PC labeled Matrix. These items listed in File Explorer Animation, Comedy, etc. cannot be deleted or otherwise removed. They cannot be mapped as they no longer exist on this machine.


    How do I remove these from appearing in File Explorer under the "Network" location?


    Thank you in advance for your time and effort on my behalf.

    :)

    File Explorer Quick Access trouble.. Cannot pin items

    File Explorer is behaving weird - I cannot pin items to Quick Access. When I pin items they won't appear to QA. Also when dragging items to QA nothing happens and there's a small icon indicating that is not possible.

    I did some "tweaks" with Ultimate Windows Tweaker 4.5 but I haven't found a setting there that could of made QA to not function.

    I did some steps as remedy that I found with Google but those didn't help.

    Any suggestions?
