    "use compact mode" is missing from File Manager settings, Windows 10, OS build 19042.985


    Work had us upgrade or Windows 10 to OS build 19042.985.I want my Icons in a folder to be "closer" to each other I use medium icons. Before, I could go to View -> Options -> Change Folder & Search options -> View tab, and put a check next to "use compact mode". This "use compact mode" option is missing.I also brought up RegEdit, and wen to "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced", and looked for a DWORD key of UseCompactMode, saw it was missing, added it, with a value of 1, but this did nothing did reboots in

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
