One of the best new features is the Quick access menu. You\u2019ll notice in the screenshot below, on the left side there\u2019s a list of my most frequently accessed folders \u2013 which are also listed under Frequent folders in the right pane. This makes it easier to locate and navigate the folders you access most often.\u00a0 If you need to navigate to other locations, click on &#8220;This PC&#8221; (My Computer in screenshot below because I changed the name This PC to My Computer for a newsletter tip a while back). If you click on This PC you&#8217;ll see all your files, folders and drives and not just your most frequently accessed folders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"auto-style730\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/quick-access.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"auto-style730\">Now if you click on one of the folders under &#8220;Quick access&#8221; on the left, you&#8217;ll see its contents on the right:<\/p>\n<p class=\"auto-style730\"><span class=\"auto-style7\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/quick-access-a.png\" alt=\"Cloudeight\" width=\"600\" height=\"461\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"auto-style730\">But wait, there\u2019s more: If you want to add a folder to Quick access, you can do that easily. Just browse to the folder you want to add to Quick access, click \u201cHome\u201d on the toolbar, click \u201cPin to Quick access\u201d (see below): I added &#8220;My Web Sites&#8221; to the Quick acess menu &#8211; as you can see in the screenshot directly above and in the final screenshot below:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/quick-access1.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Above, you can see I added a folder called \u201cMy Web Sites\u201d to my Quick access menu. Below you can see that My Web Sites is now pinned to Quick access (below). Quick access is a great way to keep your most often accessed folders at your fingertips \u2013 and it\u2019s another great feature of Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/quick-access2.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You can access File Explorer and its Quick access feature by pressing Windows Key + E, from your Windows 10 Start menu, or by clicking on folder icon on your taskbar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All About Quick Access in Windows 10 Quick access is a really cool and useful feature in Windows 10 \u00a0that keeps your most often used folders right at your finger tips.
