    Hi @klappa,

    You could collapse the 'Folders' portion with the small arrow:

    Hello klappa, :)

    The tutorial below can help show you how to remove "Folders" from This PC.

    If you are referring to Quick access instead, then the tutorial below can help to open File Explorer to "This PC" instead of "Quick access".
