Windows 10: File Explorer Keeps Crashing

i had many troubles with windows file explorer lately.


90% of the times when i try to open/move/copy a file, or go to a folder, the explorer stops responding, restarts and then again.


i tried every advise i've seen so far, like changing the folder preferences, re-installing windows, and much more stuff.


if anyone knows of a solution i would be very greatful


note: i have many cloud storage folders. onedrive, google drive, dropbox and icloud. i dont know if that's the cause but it might be helpful for understanding the issue
