Of course, that could clutter your Desktop a bit, so I would suggest using descriptive titles and perhaps changing the default icon. You can follow this procedure to create as many shortcuts for as many folders as you want. The command in the Target box should follow this pattern:Ĭ:\windows\EXPLORER.EXE /n, /e, X:\Folder of my choosing Now, just like you did in Windows XP, you will change the Target box on this screen ( Figure C) to include the switches and the location of your desired folder. When you get to the Properties screen, click on the Shortcut tab. Right-click the File Explorer shortcut and click on the Properties menu item. To get that shortcut to open in a different folder you will have to modify its properties. If you double-click that shortcut it will open File Explorer in Quick Access as it did before. The system will locate the new shortcut file to your Desktop by default. Once you find the executable file (explorer.exe), right-click it and navigate to the Create Shortcut menu item.
Note: You can't modify the way the executable file itself works. If you insist on making Windows 10 act more like Windows XP, you will have to create a shortcut for the File Explorer app, which is located in the Windows file folder. That feature could come in handy for Windows 10 tablets or PCs using a touch screen. Figure Bįor those of you who prefer the Windows 10 Start Screen, you also have the option to pin a folder or a file to the Start Screen. As you can see in Figure B, I have several pinned folders, which I can access quickly by right-clicking the File Explorer icon in the Taskbar. Once you do, that file or folder will be pinned to the submenu. All you have to do is grab a folder or file displayed in File Explorer and drop it on the File Explorer icon on the Taskbar. You can use this feature to pin any folder or file you want to this submenu. However, if you right-click the File Explorer icon, you are presented with a submenu showing pinned and recently opened files and folders.
