    File Explorer


    While working in a folder with Pictures I use the side bar to drop down to set of photos I need to work on but then after a few seconds the side bar defaults back to the top of the folders contents. Rather annoying and making difficult to make any edits to a photo name. Adding to this I get File Explorer (Not Responding).

    :)
