How to stop folders from automatically adding into Quick access please?
There is no “view ribbon”. So please don’t tell me to go there. Microsoft goes out of it’s way to make things more difficult and less private with every new update.
There is no view tab nor view ribbon anywhere in file explorer so please miss me with the stock answers.
There is a view pulldown and a sort pulldown and three dots. Those are the only things clickable on file explorer and none of them have anthing to do with quick access or any other intrusion of privacy.
Hi! I’m Nasr . I am more than happy to help you out. 🙂
File Explorer adds these folders that you often use. To stop the folders from showing in Quick Access:
1. Click the See more menu (the three dots icon) and select Options.
2. On the Folder Options dialog, make sure the General tab is active.
3. In the Privacy section, uncheck the Show frequently used folders and Show recently used files in Quick Access in Quick Access box.
4. Click Clear next to Clear File Explorer history.
Click OK.
Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
