    How to make desktop a default selection


    Hello
    Please see the prntscrn to see that I do not have desktop as a default selection. I can scroll down but my children and wife will not remember to do so. How do I make it a default?
    Thank you

    Read here, see if this will help: How to Customize the File Open/Save Dialog Box in Windows

    A bit over half way down the page is a section titled: Using PlacesBar Editor which may be easier to follow.

    You could also add the desktop to favorites. Just locate the desktop in the navigation pane and drag it to Favorites.

    I wonder if it is a Word issue and a repair would help or hurt?
