    In Windows Explorer I'm trying the Navigation Pane again. I forgot that it has this bizarre habit of moving downwards in the column the opposite of what any thinking person would want! when expanding a folder by hitting the right arrow key. Is there any way of stopping this insanity? Its jumping around all the time making navigation a horrendous hassle. Also, when you scroll down it would be far smarter to have the column move, not the highlight on the column. Otherwise its going to move to the bottom always so you only see what you've already eliminated - totally self defeating. You w

    Windows explorer - How to disable navigation pane auto scroll

    Hi,

    The issue I'm facing in my work laptop (Windows 10) and in personal laptop (Windows 8.1 update1).

    Due to restriction, I'm using screenshot from my personal laptop; but the issue is exactly same.

    This seems to be windows explorer bug, was present in Win 7, then in 8 and now in 10. It's very irritating.

    For example, I opened windows explorer. The navigation pane is normal.

    I clicked "#Downloads" in navigation pane. The folder opened in right side, in the actual window.

    Then I double clicked the "Images" folder in actual window, and navigation pane selection scrolled to the "This PC" area.
    But I have not clicked anything in the navigation pane.

    So, to use the pinned/favorite folders from navigation pane, again need to be scrolled up.

    The setting as suggested in many forums, is exactly same:

  3. OneDrive missing from Windows Explorer navigation pane

    When I first cleaned installed Windows 10 v1809 on my machine I applied a Group Policy setting for OneDrive to Prevent the Usage of OneDrive for File Storage to ENABLED. Of course, that would remove the OneDrive from the left side navigation pane within Windows File Explorer. But now, I set the Group Policy back to NOT CONFIGURED, rebooted the machine and the OneDrive is still missing from the the left side of the Windows File Explorer navigation pane as shown in my image. I even performed the command GPUPDATE /FORCE.

    My laptop is a standalone, not part of a Domain.

    I tried all the things listed from the article below but with no luck. I also was able to sign in with my OneDrive account and that was all fine and OneDrive appeared on the File Explorer pane. But once I UNLINKED my account from OneDrive, the OneDrive was still missing.

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...8-b74545c7f4da

    Even if no Group Policies are set, and even NOT signing into OneDrive, by default, the OneDrive icon should still appear on the left side navigation pane when launching Windows File Explorer.

    And suggestions?

    My guess is to recreate my user profile, but I don't really want to do that now.

    Windows 7 Preview Pane

    I'm not sure about the window pane view but, I think Xvid is causing WMP to crash. Find the most recent Xvid codec release and install that, as it should stop WMP crashing.

    CoverterLite probably installed a dodgy version of Xvid.
