Click the "Save changes" button and you're done! Now, whenever you press the power button, your PC should immediately shut down. Next, in the list of options on the left, click "Choose what the power buttons do." As you'll see, there are two pull-down menus next to "When I press the power button" - one each for On Battery and Plugged In (unless you have a desktop, in which case you'll probably see just the latter).Ĭlick that menu, then choose Shut Down. To remedy that, click in Windows 10's Search field, type power, and then click Power Options in the search results that appear. When you're ready to shut down your PC, why not just press the power button? Why not, indeed! Except that on most computers, that button comes preprogrammed to do something else: put the machine into sleep mode. Fortunately, there are faster ways to turn off your computer. I'll never understand why Microsoft has steadfastly refused to add a one-click Shut Down button to the desktop. Then you click Power, and finally Shut Down. So even in Windows 10, you have to click "Start" to shut down your PC. But that's still what it's called, and still how Microsoft refers to it. Granted, the Start button is no longer labeled that way, having evolved into a Windows-logo button back in Vista. Note that disabling showing frequently used folders removes them from both the Quick Access menu in the navigation pane and from the main Quick Access view you get when you open File Explorer or click the Quick Access folder.It must be a point of pride in Redmond that even after all these years, you still have to click "Start" to shut down your computer. To remove a folder from quick access, right-click it and select the “Unpin from quick access” option. You can now add your own favorite folders to the quick access list by dragging-and-dropping them there or by right-clicking a folder and choosing the “Pin to Quick Access” option. In the “Privacy” section at the bottom, disable the “Show frequently used folders in Quick access” option. In File Explorer, click the File menu, and then select “Change folder and search options.” You can turn that off, though, and use it just like the tried-and-true Favorites list if you want. It really works the same-letting you pin favorite folders-but adds frequently-visited folders automatically to the list. The Quick Access list takes the place of the old Favorites list. Stop Showing Favorite Folders or Recent Files in Quick Access And before you ask: no, Windows still doesn’t provide an easy way to have File Explorer automatically open to a folder other than Quick Access or This PC.
