    Exitting / end-tasking File Explorer

    I've found the easiest way to exit / end-task File Explorer in Windows 10- so, if anyone wants an easy method, then just refer to this post:

    If you're encountering a problem / bug with your Windows 10 system, and a website told you to end-task File Explorer:

    • Move your cursor to the place on the taskbar where it shows the date and time.
    • Click Ctrl + Shift keys and then, still holding, right click on the place where it shows date and time.
    • There will be an option called, 'Exit File Explorer'. Click it.
    • If you need to start File Explorer back, click Ctrl + Shift + Esc buttons together (as everyone knows). The Task Manager appears.
    • Click 'File' > click 'Run new task' > type 'explorer' or 'explorer.exe' and hit enter.
    • Wait till it loads.

    Over! That was easy, wasn't it?

    You can use my easy method. Or use the hard way - I'm not insisting to use this way. File explorer end task :)
