NC "folder" missing from Win 10 explorer navigation pane

Joel_Peltonen · December 14, 2018, 4:34pm

I have a problem with win 10 - I had 2.5.1 RC 1 or 2.5.0 RC 1 (can’t remember exactly) installed and I wanted to update to 2.5.1final. The app showed no updates available so I went to the website and downloaded the installer. I chose to remove the old NC installation. The installation worked perfectly but now the Nextcloud navigation pane item is missing! How could I fix this?

By navigation pane item I mean the icon and text on the left hand side of explorer where you have favourites, computr, libraries, onedrive, dropbox, network and such things.

Thank you in advance!
