Every time I try to use the Save As feature to save a Word or Excel document, Teams channels appear in the Quick Access area. I don't want these items to appear. This just started happening last week. Normally the folders I have added to Quick access show up..

    I agree. I do not want MSTeams locations in Quick Access for MSWord. I will never use them, and they take up the entire sidebar. I would like the option to remove them as they are hindering productivity. Thank you for your consideration.

    I am sorry, that does not answer the original question at all.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but as far as I know, you can't customize the File > Open > Quick Access category at all.
