    See https://streamable.com/efbzho. The file will not open until I restart explorer.exe; however, it works fine if I run it by doubling clicking or using the open with menu without navigating to the file. This happens with all my file extensions not just txt and with other files used to open with not just Sublime Text. I have tried running DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth and sfc /scannow and restarting my computer but that did not fix it.

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
    most of the time it works to me. *Smile Nothing happens when I use "Open with" and navigate to the file to open with unless I... :)

    Simply, HOW? I got the DDS plugin but the POS wont open DDS files still. Can someone give me a step-by-step rundown of how to install the DDS plugin for gimp so I know if I'm missing something?

    Navigation pane in File Explorer always opens to the bottom

    How are your Navigation Pane options set?

    You don't have Expand to currrent folder sleected, do you?

    If you:
    1. Open Explorer with WInKey+E
    2. Collapse the Navigation Pane
    3. close & re-open Explorer

    Does it open with the Navigation Pane collapsed? If so, close Explorer & open regedt. Navigate to:

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Modules\NavPane

    RIght-click the NavPane "folder", select Permissions... > Advanced and add a Deny Set Value entry for your Username:

    If the Navigation Pane opened expanded even after collapsing, try deleting the ExpandedState value under the NavPane key. Repeat the test. If suceesful, perform the above permissions mod.
