    File manager automatically opens at a certain time - win11


    I'm using win 11 and have a very annoying error when the file manager automatically pops up at random times.At first I suspected it might be a virus, to rule it out I tried reinstalling windows and reinstalling programs but still the same the installation I downloaded from microsoft should be safe.Then I tried searching for this error on google and surprisingly this error has appeared since 2016.- Most ways to fix it are to turn off auto play and use cmd to check the system.=> because I reinstalled win, I found that using cmd to check the system was not possible, so I turned off auto play

    :)
