The quick access folder is a great idea ... to a point ...
Just because I am working in or, on a folder doesn't mean I will need to open it again. I am moving music files around and will most likely delete said folder anyway.
This isn't happening all the time but, if I have a folder open for, say, longer than a minute (not sure how long it actually takes), it will jump right up to the quick access menu. Is there a way to stop this from happening? Like say, maybe, I pick what should be there instead of them jumping there just because they are open for a couple minutes?

So, you can see the options to customise quick access in the privacy tab of options in explorer.

You can also pin things to the quick access, useful if you want to customise the window in explorer 😀
