    I have Win10 and if I Open Exploer on the Left Hand Side I can see all of my Drives and USB Drives.
    But now I just see my USB Drives and my C"\ Drive is not here.

    But I do see This PC and if I Click this I see my C:\ Drive and all my Drives.

    And yes I do have my System Folders Set to Show All Drives even Empty Drives.
    So what is going on how do I have it Show up in the List of my other Drives on the Left Hand side in Explorer?

    Hi biferi,

    It sounds like 'Explorer' is set to open to 'Quick Access'.
    You can change this....
    Open 'Explorer' and click on File ( top left hand side)
    Click on 'Change folder and search options'.
    Use the drop down arrow after 'Open file explorer to' ... and select 'This PC'.
    Click apply and OK,
    Close explorer and re-open.
    Do you now see your drives?

    Ok I do what you Say.
    And it Still does not Show.

    The only way I get my C"\ Drive to Show on the Left Hand Side is to Click on is to Click This PC on the Left Hand Side then the C:\ Drive Drops Down.

    But DeskTop and All the other Folders Drop Down as Well.

    My C:\ Drive use to Show with my USB Drives on the Left without Showing the other Folders on the Left like DekTop and other Folders.

    Ok, so you are only worried about the left hand pane.
    I take it that The C drive is showing normally on the main center pane?
    Is this what you are seeing....

    and is this what you want to see.....

    mypc2.PNG

    if so.....
    Right click on This PC (on the left hand pane ) and select Expand from the menu.
