Thanks for sharing what works for you.  I am happy that it figured out.  This will be valuable as others might have the same issue as you

 

I guess the correct wording should be quick access instead of favorites.  BTW its a Mac phase.  You can still do those task in Win 10 as I just tried several on my machine.  But no matter here as it wasn't the solution.

Have a good day
