    W11 File Explorer - OneDrive Folder Status Icon - How Do I Remove From View Permanently


    The reason is that the icon is larger than the text and causes a slight increase in spacing between the rows. So if I compare two identical folders on different drives on shows 31 items on screen and the OneDrive connected folder only shows 29 without scrolling. My eye then thinks that one of folders is missing content. This never used to happen until very recently. If i remove status icon all is fine 31 each.. But if I then move to a different folder and then return again, the icon has re-appeared.Any help appreciated

    :)

    Files & Folders View as medium or large Icons

    To assist you better, we would suggest that you try to follow the steps below:

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Once you are viewing a folder, right click an empty space within the File Explorer window and select View from the dialogue menu, then choose Large or any icon you wanted to use. Alternatively, you can use the following shortcut keys on the keyboard to
      change your View settings:
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 1 Extra Large
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 2 Large icons
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 3 Medium Icons
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 4 Small Icons
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 5 List
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 6 Details
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 7 Tiles
    • CTRL + SHIFT + 8 Content
    3. Once you have the view set, you can make it the default view for

    every folder.

    4. Click Apply, then click OK.

    Update us on the result.

    how do i remove the 'status' column in windows explorer - permanently!

    Hi, discussed here, but without resolution.
    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...befc51b?page=1

    I came across this - it refers to the Nav. Pane which is not what you're showing, but I'm wondering if it might be related. (I don't use Onedrive).

    https://www.askvg.com/windows-10-tip...file-explorer/

    You could try that and then deselecting the column.

    This review seems to suggest there may be options in Onedrive settings to deselect folders:

    - without trying it I'm not certain whether this is relevant.
