How do I add a folder as a quick link in the left pane tree?
I have tried right clicking but this does not allow that functionality.
Thanks

The tree in XYplorer does not currently allow you to create nodes and use it as a favorites bar like that in Windows Explorer.
However, there are a few features that are similar (and in some ways better!) which you could use.
You can make those folders favorites (Favorites > Toggle Favorite Folder) and then they'll be shown in bold and when you right click on the empty space in the tree you'll see them in a menu:You can also access this menu from a toolbar button if you prefer.
The Mini Tree reduces the tree to just the folders you are using, which isn't exactly what you want but might still be helpful.
The closest alternative though is the Catalog which you can populate with folders, apps, searches, tags and more.
Lastly, you can create Custom Toolbar Buttons and using either Smart Dropdown Buttons or Droppable User Buttons depending on what you're actually trying to achieve with the folder have these folders available via individual or combined toolbar buttons.
Hope that helps!
