    Windows 10 File Explorer Frequent Places Corrupt After Deleting AutomaticDestinations-ms &...


    Hi,


    I have Windows 10 Home Edition.


    After deleting jump list AutomaticDestinations-ms & CustomDestinations-ms files under %AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent, I noticed that the default pinned locations under File Explorer contains a corrupt entry.


    Normally, there are only four default locations under frequent places: 1. Desktop, 2. Documents, 3. Downloads, 4. Pictures.


    However, for me, I got a fifth pinned location: {018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}, which i discovered is the registry key for OneDrive. I completely uninstalled OneDrive when I first got this computer. When I clicked on the pinned location, I received error message: cannot find application to open file.


    I tried sfc /scannow and DISM, no help. I can unpin this item, which makes it disappear. But it comes back every time I delete AutomaticDestinations-ms & CustomDestinations-ms.


    Therefore, my question is how to remove corrupt items from the default jump list?


    Thank you so much!

    :)

    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

    Windows 8.1 file explorer delete history/ frequent places list, will not function to delete.

    Every time I try to delete Windows file explorer's history & frequent places list, the list just "pops" right back up to stay cluttered.

    I have to use the (choose location) of move or copy files, when the list is full of prior places.

    File Explorer frequent items corrupt in Windows 10

    Sorry, your original post said Frequent files -- you mean
    Frequent folders    , right?

    If so, copy & paste this path into the Address bar of File Explorer and delete the items there.

    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
