  1. How to reorder items in Quick access File explorer, Windows 11


    I think my File Explorer Windows 11 is possessed by an evil creature that enjoys rattling me. Every once in a while it decides to substitute my pinned folders with some random and mostly useless ones. Today I decided to retry and re-organize that section of File explorer.I am not able to sort the items I put in Quick Access. Folders are in a completely random order, not alphabetical, not based on usage. It is random.When I try and move a folder, File Explorer put it back where it was.This is an incredibly bad application. I fail in understanding how Microsoft is not able to provide a simple

    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?

    Can no longer reorder Quick Access folders in list

    Not working for me. Here's the strange thing: I can reorder the Windows-default Quick Access items (Desktop, Downloads, Documents, Pictures), but I CANNOT reorder folders that I have pinned to Quick Access
