Files Open with Explorer
Has the "Open with Explorer" feature ever been discussed as it relates to the Groups files? That functionality has been very useful on a few occasions when migrating data from one library to another...

It is still available when documents are opened in Internet Explorer. AFAIK, it workes only in IE as it depends on ActiveX control.

After I work with a document, I use the Most Recently Used list within the Office application. If it's a doc I'm working on, I pin it. If it's a doc library I frequent, I pin that too. Then the doc or location is available across all my devices.

How do you pin a library?

Hi James.
I put together the following video to illustrate. I pin document libraries often, because I belong to a few Team Sites, Outlook Groups and Microsoft Teams. Once I have opened or worked on a document from a document library, I'll pin it for easy access later.

Hi Darrell,
i am doing the exact same thing. Open via Explorer feels like if the line brakes i am not sure if my document is up to date :-)
