Windows 7 Favorites Side Bar

  • On opening a folder in Windows 7 a side-bar is visible on the left-hand side titled “Favorites”. You can add frequently visited locations to this Favorites bar allowing for quick access to those locations. To add a folder to the Favorites list, simply open or navigate to that folder and then right-click on the “Favorites” side-bar heading and click “Add current location to Favorites”. Alternatively, you can also drag a folder onto the “Favorites” heading to add that folder to the list. To remove a folder, simply right-click on the folder to be removed in the Favorites list and then select “Remove”.

Leave a Comment
Hi there. If this is the first time you are posting a comment it will not appear immediately, but needs to be approved. This is necessary in order to combat comment spam. However, once you have submitted a comment (which is subsequently approved) you do not need to go through this process again - the site remembers who you are and auto-approves your comments. Nifty eh? Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience that this may cause for your first comment post.
