    File Explorer issues since upgrading to Windows 11


    Hello,I have seen this issue being reported in many similar forms, however none of the solutions have fixed this issue for me. It seems especially weird since it seems like a major bug that has persisted for over a year I am completely updated.In my experience, the issue is as follows: Explorer.exe seems to hang and restart itself when doing the following actions:Clicking on the pinned File Explorer icon on the taskbar. I have tried removing and re-adding file explorer to the taskbar, and the same issue persists.When opening certain zipped folders, all file explorer windows close and restart

    :)

    Windows Explorer Replacement?

    I don't use Internet Explorer, I meant the thing where you can look at files etc. Hotkey Windows+E. Maybe it's the wrong name in english though. *Stick Out Tongue File Explorer issues since upgrading to Windows 11 :p

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
