1- is there a way to "auto-hide" the sidebar (c.f. autohide the taskbar):
moving the mouse to the right(or left!) side of the screen makes the sidebar
popping-up. I once had a similar sidebar made by someone that acted that way.
2-how can I have the explorer window to have two parts? At the left the tree
of drives and maps, at the right the contents of the map (in previous
windows-explorer : knob "MAPS")

Not sure about the first question.

To view folders with the Tree, or map as you refer to it, simply open any
folder and near the bottom on the left hand side you will see the word
"folders" and a small carat. Click on that and the tree is shown.
 
The view options of my explorer are different than what you describe. In
"help" I can see what you mean, but in my present view there is no "folders"
carat. I started fooling around and changing view, changed in folder options
classic to new and back and looked in this forum: I see that there are more
people struggling with the layout and properties of the explorer windows
(withhout navigation pane).

I've experienced years with computers but this strikes all! I cannot find my
way in my own pc! Grrrr!

Are you in Safe Mode?

Not in safe mode, I wish I could send you a "print screen of the explorer
window: left below is just the number of files. In help and support, looking
for "navigation pane" the 4th item shows me what I want:
But: Now I've just managed to get what I want; activating in "folder
options" the item "always showe icons" shows me the word "folders" left below
and then I have my navigation pane.
Thanks for your time and help!
Bye
