Add or Remove This PC in Navigation Pane in Windows 10  

Hello. I followed the guide exactly. However, This PC still shows up in Explorer. I had to"Exit Explorer" and theb run explorer.exe from Task Manager. You should clarify that you have to sign out and back in, restart, or exit and reopen explorer to see the changes. You do so from the "default setting" steps but not the removal steps.

Hello. It is already in step 12.

Yes. My point was that it wasn't clear if that only applied to the "add This PC" onlyor also "remove This PC"

Normally, step 12 would apply to both.

Ok... maybe you can clarify that in the guide?...

Thanks, can you make a reg file for the above entry? try to make one but getting access denied error. Dont have admin privileges. thank you.

Hello @GustvandeWal, and welcome to Ten Forums.

As a workaround, you could create a shortcut of "This PC" where you want using the method below, and "Pin to Quick Access" it to have it stay under Quick Access in the navigation pane.

1) Create a New Folder where you want to keep it at.

2) Rename the folder as This PC.{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

3) Pin the folder to Quick Access.

Any idea how to also do this with the public desktop link?
