    CERTAIN SPECIFIC folders wont open


    Hi, i am trying to clear up some space on my computer. There are certain folders recommended by certain websites to be cleared out. They appear to be system folders that come with windows.I DO NOT CARE WHAT IS ESSENTIAL TO THE OPERATION OF WINDOWS. I will figure that out myself.However, when i click them, file explorer gives no response. Not even a "locked by administrator" which i am. The only thing that happens when i click is the folder is highlighted.The specific folders are "WindowsApps" and "LiveKernelReports" How do i access these folders?

    :)

    Whenever I open a folder, it opens in new window (Windows 10)

    Hi Pratyaksh,

    To assist you further, let me ask.


    • What changes have you make in the folder options?

    • Is the error specific to a folder?
    I would suggest you to follow the steps and check if it help.


    • Open file explorer, click on view and select options.

    • Double-click on options, in the general tab click on Open each folder in the same Window.

    • Click apply and ok.
    I hope the information is helpful and if you need any other assistance on Windows, we’ll be glad to assists you.

    Thank you.

  3. Windows 10 search for a specific folder name and file name

    Carlos: Thanks for your reply. What you suggest is what I have been doing. I search for folders with a specific name and get a list. Then I have to search each folder for a specific file. So it's a two step search and that's what I was trying to avoid.

    I assume there are applications out there that allow for an "AND" search in Windows. I'll try that approach.

    Thanks, again.

    SSD is Slow to Open Certain Folders

    This.

    This actually works but I'm wondering why do I have to do this? What's wrong with the folder? I did what you suggested with one of the folders and it opens instantaneously now. But do I have to do this with every folder that happens to open slowly? Why? What's the cause of this?
