With the introduction of Windows Vista, Microsoft introduced the Navigation Pane.

Click on the Navigation Pane, select the Navigation Pane option from the drop-down menu

The Navigation Pane is now visible on the left edge of the window. The top option in the Navigation Pane is the Quick Access option. This option lets you access the most recent and frequently opened folders and places.
