Is there a way to turn these tasks off in particular folders? I am talking about the "File and Folders Tasks", "Other places", "Details" etc. It takes up too much room in my folder view
This is a global setting and if you turn it off, it wil be turned off for all folders. To turn off
common tasks pane, in any explorer window, click on tools>folder options and on the general tab,
select 'Use windows classic folders'. Ok your way out.
