Windows Explorer Lost Functionality After Upgrade

I upgraded my Optiplex 755 to Windows 10. After installing the AMT driver, I lost some functionality in Windows Explorer, whether AMT is enabled or disabled. How do I get back the navigation pane and other miscellaneous functions I lost? The ability to show the pane doesn't seem to exist now. Should I uninstall the AMT driver, and if I do, how to get rid of the bangers in Device Manager? Tks.

    That has nothing whatsoever to do with AMT.

    Microsoft keeps goofing with the interface to hide things.

    Access Control Panel. You can do WINDOWS KEY R and Open CONTROL.EXE and Click OK

    Click  View by category pulldown on the right
    and then choose Small icons.

    Control Panel\All Control Panel Items

    Change the VIEW to small IconsChange the VIEW to small Icons

     

    Choose File Explorer Options 
    (go to Control Panel and select "File Explorer Options").
    Once you are in the File Explorer Options window and its General tab,
    find "Open File Explorer to:" and change it to "This PC".
    Click "Apply" to save the changes and "OK" to exit.
