Windows 10: Not all items on the desktop shows up in file explorer

How do I get file explorer, when I select the desktop, to show what all is on the desktop, not just those items in my user id desktop folder? Nothing shows up from 'All Users' as it does on the desktop itself.

:)

 

how to show or list all items on Desktop

All items show on regular desktop, but not listed under File Explorer. Question is, how to get all listed under File Explorer.

 

Pinned Items not showing in File Explorer.

No pinned items are not showing in both File Explorer and Quick Access.

Even if I pin a folder to Quick Access it is not showing in Quick Access.

I am showing a video regarding the issue ....

File Explorer jump list doesn't consistently show location popups

Thanks for your reply.

Whatever "it" is exactly, all I know is, it does not behave consistently. This is so across multiple systems. Also, it isn't just recent items, but pinned items that fail to produce the popup on mouse over (when they should).

If the File Explorer setting you're referring to is "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items," I already have that turned on.

Based on my tests, I tend to think this is a bug. Did you try reproducing it?

1. Right click File Explorer in taskbar to open the jump list.
2. Mouse over any of the pinned or recent folders and see if the popup with the location path appears (as shown in the screenshot with the original post).
3. If it does appear, close out of the jump list by left clicking anywhere outside of it.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until you find the popups not appearing. In my experience, it always occurs, even if not right away. And all too often when I need them most.
