After recently upgrading to Windows 10, I noticed that whenever I opened Explorer, it always showed me Quick access. I like the new Quick access feature, but I would have preferred having Explorer open to This PC.
How to Change the Default Folder When Opening File Explorer in Windows 10
For me, having access to the various drives on the computer and my network devices was much more important than having access to frequently used folders or recently opened files. It's a handy feature, but I don't mind having to click it once to access it.
In this post, I will show you how to change the default folder from Quick Access to This PC when you open Explorer. Additionally, I will also show you a trick to set any folder as the default folder when you open Explorer in Windows 10.
To change the setting, open File Explorer, click File, and then click Change folder and search options.
