    I keep loosing folders that I have pinned to the "quick access list". what is wrong?

    Pin to Quick access - does not retain pinned folder list

    The Pin to Quick access file list disappears every time after I've pinned numerous folders to it - typically after a sleep mode is deactivated. My
    laptop at home retains it but the one at work on my desktop DOES NOT.
