    Windows 10 file explorer left pane truncating / word wrapping network


    As per title Windows 10 file explorer left pane truncating / word wrapping network shares. See below. There is plenty of space in the left pane but it wraps it anyway. I have the Display full path in title bar setting selected. Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Windows 10 File Explorer Preview Pane Word Doc fix

    I had the same problem. I went searching for an answer too, and found this.

    To enable the Preview pane, open File Explorer and follow these steps:

    • In the File Explorer window, click the View tab. The View tab is shown.
    • In the Panes section, click the Preview Pane button. The Preview pane is added to the right side of the File Explorer window.
    • Select several files one by one.

    I was in Word when I opened File Explorer then the View tab. I only had to click the Preview Pane button. A separate column appeared in my list of word files and then I was able to previes all the the docx files. I checked and it seems to work across
    files, so once the Preview Pane **** selected it was selected for all the directory files.

    You've probably already tried this, but I didn't see where you said you were in Word when you clicked the Preview Pane button.

    I've spent the last few years with Win10 and Word 365 and I feel like I've gone backwards. I knew the commands very well, even being able to do some pretty sophisticated design work in Word. Now, I feel like a beginner all over again. I really wish that
    MS hadn't screwed so heavily with the commands. To me, I know they're there, but now their location is hidden. Scheese!

    Seriously, what's so difficult to understand about these simple steps?

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    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
