Windows 11 Explorer: can't order quick access items in the left pane
I can't reorder the quick access items in the right pane of the windows explorer through drag and drop. It's weird, because if i drag and drop one of them to the top, it works, but if i want to place...
juliangzr Yes, this is very frustrating. The whole point of having a Quick Access folder list is to make folders easy to find but if you can't sort them you end up spending seconds scanning down an ever-growing list of randomly named folders.
I just upgraded to Windows 11 and it was the first thing I checked to see if it had been fixed. No joy there.
- I don't understand how something this simple isn't obvious to them.
I'm sure it is obvious to them but they couldn't care less. They are more interested in adding a feature that sucks, for example, the dark "black" outlook appearance while removing the best ever dark gray background. If Microsoft had any true competitors they would definitely lose customers.
- Me too - it's been like this since the first time we got 'tabs' - when I ran that update, this same behaviour started happening for me. I can still add things into Quick Access, but I can't move them order about.
I tried MS support and did some OS install fix, but when I upgraded windows the same issue happened, which suggest that it's an OS bug
