    File Explorer takes 30-60 seconds to open after 1903 update


    1903 Update, Now File Explorer takes 30-60 seconds to open. Once opened, right-clicking files takes 30-60 seconds to respond with the appropriate pop-up. Selecting properties on the ribbon bar takes 30-60 seconds.
    Other file operations using the ribbon buttons and navigating around folders is fine. Regular file picker pop-ups are fine. Copy/Paste is fine as long as I do not use right click to do it. This was fine until the 1903 update.
    Tried removing the NVIDIA context menu option, per an article - no change. The NVidia software seems to have been updated on the same day as the 1903 update. Related?

    windows 10 file explorer opens for a split second then crashes

    This problem occurs if I try opening any folder or file explorer itself for example:

    • an existing file folder with files in it that is on my desktop,
    • opening the file explorer from the taskbar (I have since unpinned it as this was suggested as a fix in some forums)
    • opening file explorer using the start menu
    • opening file explorer using the windows key + E
    In each case the explorer dialogue box will pop up momentarily then disappear again (perhaps a second or 2 sometimes, other times just a flash.)

    So far I have tried:

    • ensuring that windows 10 is totally up to date
    • run the sfc scannow - this came up with no error found
    • made sure that the settings for file explorer were set to opening at 'this pc'

    I am absolutely out of ideas. Can someone please help?

    File Explorer will not read a specific folder after update to 1903 from 1809.

    File Explorer will not read a specific folder after the update to 1903 from 1809.

    I open "File Explorer", scroll down to the folder in question, left click on the folder, the contents (files) display for about 2 seconds then the folder closes and "File Explorer" also closes.



    I have tried to rename it but get the same results.

    I have checked the Property(security) with that of folder close by and it is the same.

    I have deleted the original folder and created a new folder but with the same results.

    Opening other folders with "File Explorer" is no problem, just this one specific folder.

    Any suggestions or a possible fix.
