    ***moved on english forum***




    Greetings,


    I got a problem with my File Explorer, my download folder is not showing up and it stays at "Working on it" and also every file icon are just.. blank. I have tried multiple things : sfc /scannow, RestoreHealth, Creating a new shortcut, Restart explorer.exe processor, Putting it to General Items but bothing worked. I would like to find a way to fix this...


    Oh and I just realized that when I want to add a file to a website, it giving me my File Explorer but named "Open" and it works perfectly! But I can't use that each time I want to go in File Explorer

    File explorer slow/Never loading solution


    Ok so since upgrading from 7 to 10 file explorer has been a absolute nightmare! Everything was either incredibly slow, didn't happen or only partially load. After enduring this to this day I have decided enough is enough and started diagnosing by limiting the startup services using MSconfig.

    After going through enabling startup services groups at the time and restarting the computer everytime! Eventually I found the service that was causing the problems with file explorer. The service is called Windows search and once disabled it restored functionality to file explorer. The search function in file explorer works but the search in the taskbar doesn't.

    Step by step guide:
    1. Hold Win+r to open run
    2. Type msconfig and hit ok or enter
    3. Click Services
    4. Navigate to Windows search (you can sort the list in descending alphabetical order)
    5. Uncheck tickbox
    6. Click apply then ok
    7. Select to restart now

    Hope this works for you.

    File explorer slow/Never loading solution


    Disable Search won't make icons load faster. It just disables the ability to find programs and other stuff fast!
    Naturally I tested your "tips" and still, loading icons are slow. It has to be some other thing going on in W10. Windows 7 didn't have this problem. Microsoft wake up!
