The quick access pane is providing links that I do not have write access to and never save to, and I need the 'Browse' folder option at the bottom, which I now have to use the scroll bar in order to select. This is adding extra steps and reducing efficiency, so I would like to remove the Quick Access pane.

Totally agree... we should be able to select our favorite/most used places and have THEM in a list!
Come on Microsoft! You knew this was going to be an issue. Fix it! Instead of rolling out updates that break VPNS apply a few simple Hide or Collapse options. That will be real bang for our buck.

You can try creating a custom ribbon that includes a 'save as' button. This will just open the save as dialogue box without the extra click and scroll.
Yay! This was such an easy fix. I added a Save, and a Save As buttons. You know, like when it just worked in the past. Also, I deleted some other groups that I never use and just cluttered up the ribbon. Thanks!
Registry Hack worked for me too, although I do have limited admin rights. Our software installs are governed by 3rd party security software, not windows Group Policy.
