    I like using the Quick Access menu on the upper left corner of Windows Explorer. But I only want a few folders there, the ones I have put there. I find that Windows will occasionally add folders automatically. How do I get windows to not do this?

    Thanks. Maybe its just me, but I don't recall having to do so much to tame Windows 7 or XP. Vista didn't need to be tamed, it just needed to have XP installed over it. :(

    Yeah Windows 7 and Windows XP require less 'tweaking' than Windows 10 which is ironic considering that newer versions of Windows should be easier to use, not harder and more cumbersome.
