    File Explorer Quick Access trouble.. Cannot pin items


    File Explorer is behaving weird - I cannot pin items to Quick Access. When I pin items they won't appear to QA. Also when dragging items to QA nothing happens and there's a small icon indicating that is not possible.

    I did some "tweaks" with Ultimate Windows Tweaker 4.5 but I haven't found a setting there that could of made QA to not function.

    I did some steps as remedy that I found with Google but those didn't help.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi, you could try this:
    Reset and Clear Recent Items and Frequent Places in Windows 10 | Tutorials

    and hide/show as per this tutorial to clear history:
    Add or Remove Recent Files from Quick Access in Windows 10 | Tutorials

    And you could try using system restore if you have a relevant restore point.
