He's posted about this issue at Microsoft Answers.How to Disable Default “Quick Access” aka “Home View” in Windows 10 File Explorer? UPDATE: Jon Cook points out that if you remove Quick Access in this way, you also kill the ability to right or left drag files to the left-hand File Explorer pane. If you decide you want the feature back, repeat the process but change the ShellFolder attributes from 'a0600000' to 'a0100000', and click OK. When you open File Explorer next time, Quick Access should be gone. Inside 'ShellFolder', double-click 'Attributes', and change data value to 'a0600000', then click OK. Click OK twice, then Apply, and hit OK until the box closes. In the 'Advanced Security Settings for ShellFolder' box, click the 'Change' link, then click 'Advanced', click the 'Find Now' button, and in the 'Search results' box select 'Administrators'. Select Permissions, and click the Advanced button. Navigate to: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSIDĮxpand it, and right-click ShellFolder. Once that’s done, open Regedit as an administrator (press Windows key + R, type 'regedit' into the Run box and hit Enter). Firstly, hide Quick Access using the step above. To remove the feature entirely, you’ll need to edit the registry. Under the General tab, change 'Open File Explorer to' from 'Quick access' to 'This PC'.
To hide Quick Access, open File Explorer and go to View -> Options.
