Make File Explorer's navigation pane match the way you work.
The navigation pane on the left of File Explorer fills up with entries you never use. Navigation+ lets you show or hide each entry, move it higher or lower, and give it a new name, all from one page in Settings.
You can also choose where File Explorer opens, and restore the defaults at any time. Windows controls where some built-in entries can go, so Navigation+ shows you what can be changed for each one.
