  1. opening windows explorer make my wifi lag


    Hi Microsoft,


    So I've been getting this lag every time I open Windows Explorer and when I go to send a file to a friend, teacher, etc and this has been happening for about a couple months now and I have no idea how to fix it. I did the SFC scans and the troubleshooting and Windows doesn't see an issue so I have no clue so if you could help me with this I'd greatly appreciate it.


    P.S when I switch Wi-Fi adapters it seems to go away for an hour but then comes back.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    File Explorer Scroll Lag

    Hello, I just did this and still the lagging continues. I want to point out that the lag occurs only when I scroll with the mouse, when I click and scroll the lag does not occur.
