When I updated my machine to Windows 11, the quick access items were moved beneath OneDrive in the File Explorer navigation pane. This is a big inconvenience since I always have my OneDrive folder expanded and can no longer scroll to the top to access my pinned folders. How do I get the pinned Quick Access items back to the top of the navigation pane where I can – ironically – access them quickly?

This video should be required viewing for anyone struggling with re-ordering things in Quick Access (now called "Home") in Windows 11. I fought with this for days, this video makes it trivially easy:

Just turn off "Show All Folders". Then it's simply drag/drop. Wow.

This. Thank you. I just spent 10min of googling and this fixed my issue.
I was not able to organize quick acces folders until I turned off "Show all folders" under right click into empty space on left panel.
Take an inspiration Greg Carmack (10y MS MVP)... one line solution instead of 325 links leading nowhere, trying to reset my grandma's social security number under full moon.
Hello Greg, ALL Windows 11 navigation panes are like this. The navigation pane in Win11 is terrible. It is inefficient and takes forever to find folders. Why was this even changed? I tried to navigate to File Explorer > View > Options > Change Folder and Search Options > General tab > Open File Explorer to > Quick Access, but it does not exist.
I'm sure I speak for many when I say we want a fix ASAP. Don't really care why or who thought it was a good idea to reorganize an area that is meant to provide efficiency for the person using it, which is different for everyone.
I got the same issue when I got the Windows 11 update yesterday. Thanks a lot MS :(
Why "fix" something that isn't broken???
So annoying...
