How to display this list of This PC Windows 10 drives

Usually when opening File Explorer or pressing Windows + E key combination, we will access This PC on Windows 10 or My Computer on Windows 7 or below. However, in some cases on Windows 10 when opening This PC, there is no list of available drives on the computer, such as C drive, E drive, D drive, etc. Instead, the item Recent files will appear with the list of most recently opened files.

This is not a This PC interface but a Quick access window, which is set by Windows 10 by default instead of This PC so users can quickly open previously opened files. This recent files section is not really necessary while the drives on the computer are hidden. So how to display the drives on This Windows 10 Windows PC?
