Every since the 22621.2134 build of window 11 or whatever the latest update was since the 9/08/23, my file explorer has been not working properly.
Every time I open file explorer it boots up normally showing all the normal stuff that the file explorer home shows
However when i go to click on a foldier the program forever buffers and clicking on it will cause it to turn white like when your program is not responding.
The only way to fix this is to restart file explorer (which btw doesn't fix the explorer only just closes the file explorer window)
There is some use ablity though any third party application however right clicking on any file, program, etc will freeze the application in question and refuse to unfreeze until forced to end it's task by the task manager
Even double clicking on folders on the desktop will garner no response or just open a frozen window of the folder that has been selected
Right clicking on a foldier on the desktop will make the desktop completely inresponisve until file explorer is restart [appliactions on the desktop and anything other then folders will work as per usual (even ones that are inaccesable foldiers via the inbuilt run fucntion)]
----------------------
I have tried everything on a old 2019 post (this one) that had a similiar issue and nothing works
The SFC Scan & DISM came up blank stating no files were corrupted
The built in troubleshooter "found" an error, "repaired" it but file explorer still remain broken
The page yielded no help
and is possibly out of date as this it was an "Windows 10 repair upgrade" option which being a system running a window 11 22h2 wouldn't work
---------------------
So put it to me stright must i have to reinstall windows yet again to fix this issue or wait for a patch from mircosoft
