    Explorer.exe message "The Parameter is incorrect"


    Recently installed Windows 11. Using Edge. Now, everytime I log in I am greeted with the message Explorer.exe - The parameter is incorrect. To get rid of it you need to reply ok? I'm looking for a fix since I understand that Explorer is no longer supported.

    :)

    parameter is incorrect

    On Windows 10 when I try to create a list of all files of a particular type, I get this message during the search: "The parameter is incorrect."

    I have run chkdsk and sfc and find no problems. It happens more frequently when the drive being searched is an external USB drive, but also happens on the local disk. There is no explanation of *what* parameter is incorrect.

    Creation of the list (a txt file) completes, with no appearance of the error messge... but I don't know if all files were found or not. Typically, this message is given when I search for a filetype of which I know there are more than 100... with the rate being
    about twice per hundred files.
    Example of the searches:

    dir *.css /S>_allCSS.txt

    dir *.html /S>_allHTML.txt
    Over the weekend I tried this on 14 different systems, with different external drives. Same result. Oddly (maybe?), no such message is given when running the search on a NAS drive (tried 2 different ones), but the search takes considerably longer on the
    NAS drives.

    Does anybody know what causes this bizarre detail-free error message?

    Any assistance greatly appreciated!
