Sgt_Strider Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Whenever I open "My Computer", there is the "favourite links bar" to the left. How do I disable that via the registry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightthief Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I'm not sure if there is a way to turn it off ccompletely. However, if you open a new Windows Explorer window, drag the divider between the Favortie Links section and the directory tree option (hiding the Favorite Links by doing so), and then close and reopen Windows Explorer, then the OS will remember that state and all future Explorer windows will have the directory tree maximized.

If I try to drag it all the way to the left, it stops and leave a portion of the column viewable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, instead, you want tu turn off the navigation pane in its entirety, then click Organize->Layout->Navigation Pane to toggle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
