    Remove duplicate links under This PC in navigation pane


    I'd like to know if it's at all possible to remove links from quick access that are duplicated under This PC once you access them from quick access.

    In this scenario I opened documents in quick access and it duplicated itself under This PC. This will happen with multiple links at a time. It's very annoying and also inconsistent as in sometimes it happens and other times it doesn't.

    Hello Josey, Remove duplicate links under This PC in navigation pane :)

    It'll remove all the separate groups of drives in the navigation pane. It won't remove the ones listed under the "This PC" group.
