Windows 10: Quick Access help

I can't link a shortcut of my user folder to Quick Access. It only links the direct folder which has a silly name (created by the first five letters of my email address), and it's just so stupid to look at.

I want Quick Access to refer to the shortcut as the 'User' directory, but this seems impossible to do without renaming the direct folder, which is not recommended at all.

Unable to access online games and web browsers

I can use Miscrosoft Edge fine, but it is not compatible with my banking website. I cannot get other browers (Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox) to work at all, but they are compatible with my website.

 

Can't we sort Quick Access items?

Hello,

Hope this helps. Otherwise, feel free to write us back for further assistance and we will be glad to help you ahead.

 

Link the parent folder "Users",
may not be as handy as the actual folder but at least you'll only be 1 click away rather than drilling down through Explorer's entire hierarchy.

 

Thanks for your response, not a bad idea :]

 

You could also, if the opportunity lends itself, install Windows with a Local Account then switch to an MS Account afterwards, then your User folder will retain the 'generic' name you would give it at the time.
