Windows 10: Quick access missing folders?

In file explorer I just noticed today that there is no music and videos folder in quick access. Is something wrong or did ms remove them.

Quick Access missing functionality

Why did MS take a step backwards moving from File Explorer Favorites to the Quick Access (windows 10)? Favorites had links to folder, which was very convenient since they could be named something different than what they are pointing to.

For instance, I have a folder path of ..\My Documents\Personal\Mortgage Info\2015

I want the 2015 folder in Quick Access (QA), but I want to call it "2015 Mortgage Info". This is not possible in Windows 10. The content of QA is and must be exact.

Also, you were able to delete these links from Favorites. DON'T try to delete it from QA, the actual folder will be removed.

Shame on you, Microsoft. You took a nice feature and ruined it.

Please bring back Favorites.

They are not there, by default, in my systems either. They are actually recently used folders.
You can add them by going to that folder in Explorer, then right clicking on Quick Access and select "Pin current folder to Quick access".
