Is there any way to completely remove the Favorite Links in Windows
Explorer? I find it takes up valuable real estate and is just a nuisance.

Hi Koka,

You can hide the "Favorite Links" area by dragging the top border of the "Folders" pane higher.

I think OP wants ALL of the space taken up by the navigation pane, including
that used by the folders pane.

LOL, didn't try that! That works pretty good. Just leaves the Favorites
heading which is acceptable. Thanks.
