Quick Access in File Explorer

[DigiBen]

Is there a way to get rid of Quick Access, or for File Explorer to open up in "This PC" first via Group Policy?

 

Obviously the kids are getting very confused, and a lot of hands go up when they cant see their mapped drives.

 

 

Also, can you hide OneDrive and Network? I know this problem has persisted since Win7/8, but I just thought I would ask

You can make File Explorer open "This PC" by setting the following registry value via GPP.

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"LaunchTo"=dword:00000001
