Windows 8 Favorite Folders

Dave’s Answer: If you’re running Microsoft Windows 8 or Win8.1, odds are quite good that you are also running Internet Explorer 11, either in “window” mode (the standard interface where it’s a window on the Desktop) or in the full-screen “Metro” mode (where it takes over the entire screen).

Outlook Calendar for Windows 10 Outlook Mail for Windows 10When you use Mail for Windows 10, your folder list displays your Inbox, Drafts, and Sent Items folders by default. Some types of accounts allow you to create new folders or delete any folders you've created. Other types of accounts do not. For more information on adding or removing folders, seeIf you have additional folders in your folder list, one or more of them may be shown. The exact number depends on how many email accounts you have and your screen resolution.

If you don't see all of your folders in the folder list, select More for a complete list of all of your folders.To ensure a folder is displayed in your folder list, mark the folder as a favorite folder. You may have to scroll if you mark more than two or three folders as favorite folders.You can also add a folder to the Windows 10 Start menu for quick access. This is called pinning a folder. Combine multiple email accounts in one InboxIf you want to combine multiple email accounts in one Inbox, you'll need to link the inboxes. Not all email accounts can be linked. For example, you can't link a Microsoft Exchange email inbox with a Yahoo email inbox. You can link different POP or IMAP accounts together.

For more information, see.Select the Settings gear at the bottom of the folder list.Select Manage Accounts, then select Link inboxes.Give your linked Inbox a name, then use the checkboxes to select which accounts you want to link.Select Save to link your inboxes.Add a folder to favorites.In the left pane, under Folders, choose More. Note: To remove a favorite folder from the list, right-click the folder's name in the left pane, and then choose Remove from favorites.

Removing a folder from your Favorites won't delete the folder. You can still access the folder from the Mail app by choosing More to display a list of all your folders. If you want to delete a folder you created, you can choose Delete. The folder and all mail within that folder will be deleted. You can't delete the default folders, such as Inbox, Drafts, Sent Items, and Outbox.Pin a folder to the Start menu.In the left pane, under Folders, choose More.On the desktop, right-click the name of the folder you want to pin to the start menu, and then choose Pin to Start. If you're on a phone or tablet, press and hold to display the context menu and choose Pin to Start.

Yesterday out of the blue some old pages from my favorites list reappeared. I deleted these in the past and now they just showed up. When I right click on them to delete them or go to organize favorites to delete them, they delete for afew seconds, but then reappear. I try again and again, but they just keep coming back. The 'favorites bar' in my favorites list does the same thing.

I have also gone to users/profile/favorites to try and delete them and they justcome back.I've run multiple scans with my antivirus software and spybot software, but it didn't fix it.Anyone know how to fix this or know what the problem could be? I am not a tech guy, just an average joe, but can get around windows decently.Thanks for your help. Yesterday out of the blue some old pages from my favorites list reappeared.Try disconnecting from the Internet and seeing if your problem persists? Otherwise check your Skydrive. Perhaps you have copies of old Favorites synchronizing from it? As another test you could try switching from being logged on using aMicrosoft account (aka Live ID) versus using a local account. Doing that would allow you to have an Internet connection but not use the same Skydrive.

Etc.Good luckRobert Aldwinckle. Robert,I do not use skydrive or any other MS accounts. I do have a external HD that I use for backing up, but I haven't done it in a while. I did disconnect from the internet to see what affect it would have. It seemed that the favorites bar folderwould stay gone while being disconnected because when I re-connected, the favorites bar folder came back.

BUT I can't be certain if it would have stayed like this because sometimes the folder won't come back until I've been surfing a while. I willlook in my external and see if I can find a favorites folder in it where I can delete things. I also have an icloud account, but that is only used for my iTunes and my ipad, neither of which have my favorites links in them.This seems to be a new issue that other people are having as well as I've seen other posts about it.Thanks again for the help and input.Will. Hi,I too, was having the same problem, deleted favourites seem to re-appear a few seconds after being deleted.I've come across a solution that worked for me:Since the latest Apple updates I've had a new program appear called iCloud. I'm running windows 8 and I find it by going top right of the screen, down to the magnifying glass, and typing 'icloud'.When iCloud appears you will get the option to sync either Mail, Contacts, Calendars and Tasks, or Bookmarks, or Photos.I deselected bookmarks, and now I can delete favourites from internet explorer.I didn't think this would work as the favourites in Safari in my iPhone are different to those on my desktop PC. But who knows.Good Luck.

IE favorites sinking with you iDevices.Today I too noticed favorite links that had previously been deleted reappeared.
