    Windows 11 File Explorer


    I just transferred files from old computer to new computer. I don't understand what I'm looking at. I cannot figure out how to navigate the left pane. All of my files are under Desktop now and I don't know where my local files are stored. Everything is in OneDrive which is also under Desktop. I am so confused how to navigate and arrange like it used to look under Windows 10. I can't tell the difference between pinned items and local disk. Microsoft please do us all a favor and stop breaking things by making improvements.

    :)

    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 Explorer Replacement?

    I don't use Internet Explorer, I meant the thing where you can look at files etc. Hotkey Windows+E. Maybe it's the wrong name in english though. *Stick Out Tongue Windows 11 File Explorer :p

    Windows 11 File Explorer

    Some files listed in Windows Explorer are blue font

    I seem to have run out of room on a Windows XP Pro system. I tried to defrag but don't have but 7% room available. I looked in Windows Explorer to try to find some huge files that might be corrupt and I see a few that are listed in blue. What does that mean? I have not compressed anything on purpose. Thanks
