Windows 10: Navigation pane not expanding when using Quick access

That is also really really awkward way.Of course I have checked/unchecked the option <Expand to open folder> in the settings but it has no effect on Quick access folders.

Remove Quick access from Navigation Pane in Windows 10  


I followed the steps in the this tutorial and was able to remove the Quick Access feature from the navigation pane of Windows Explorer - thanks for this.

However, the Quick Access feature can still be seen in the navigation pane of the save dialog explorer when trying to save a file from a web browser, for example. Do you have any tips on how to remove the Quick Access feature from this location as well?

 

How to move Quick Access to Navigation Pane

Hi,

Currently my Quick Access is displayed in right pane when selecting the Home icon in the navigation pane. When I go into the File Explore option, Quick Access is missing. I only have in the pick list: HOME; THIS PC & ONE DRIVE PERSONNAL.

How can I make the Quick Access folder appear in the Navigation (Left) Pane?

Thanks,

Thanks Shawn When I was looking at your request for the reg files I saw that the one in root wasn't done and I thought maybe I misread the Tut..LOL But it is now out of the navigational pane but the folders are still there but I think that maybe they should be..





Thank you for your help. I appreciate it!
