Windows 10: "see more" button on File explorer fix

I have attached an image of what I'm talking about. This began recently. It's the only window task bar option menu to display above the window. All of the other lists drop down into the frame, as they should. When I have file explorer full screen, it still goes up and runs out of frame. How do I fix this?

File Explorer List and Details buttons

I appreciate being able to customize the buttons on the file explorer toolbar.

However, I am constantly switching back and forth between the List and Details view.

Is their any way to isolate theses two buttons and place them individually on the toolbar, just like the List button on the status bar.

 

Explorer Crash FIX!

Our old Dell Inspiron N5110 got this problem also.
Taskbar keeps refreshing. Thanks many hints from guys above pointed me the direction to fix it.
From Reliability History Monitor I found Explorer keeps crashing because of IDTNC64.CPL (type reliability history at Start)
1. the issue was from IDTNC64.cpl, the sound driver,
but I could not successfully to uninstall it from device manager nor control panel or rename the file or the folder.
2. uninstalled High Definition Audio Device few times, problem remain
3. tried to uninstall within Control Panel > Program file, yet Control Panel only open 2, 3 seconds then closed automatically.
4. finally solved Control Panel shut down problem by going to msconfig>services>and disable Windows Error Reporting Service. see below sequence:
Click window + R keys, type msconfig, Enter to open msconfig, click Services Tag and look for Windows Error Reporting Service. Unchecked it, then apply, ok then reboot system when it suggests.
5. After this, open Control Panel by clicking Start > type Control Panel. Then my Control Panel open and stay put, won't shut down by itself.
6. In Control Panel > Programs > I found IDT Audio and successfully to uninstall it.
7. No more taskbar refresh or Windows Explore shut down after uninstalled IDT and Sound still works great!!!
8. repeat step 4 to check Windows Error Reporting Services by clicking it. OK then follow system suggestion to reboot.
9. Control Panel still able to open and remain open. Sound still works and no more refresh.
10. From Reliability History monitor found no more Windows Explorer crashing.
I am happy and hope above steps help

 

Windows 10 Start Menu File Explorer button error "Windows cannot access the specified device ..."

Hi All,

I have a strange error with windows start menu today! Please check the attached two images:

Notes (before reproducing steps):

• My laptop is up without restart for 11 days till now, I am a software engineer.
• I have ended the explorer processes and relaunched it from the task manager.
• File Explorer button in the start menu opens "This PC".
• I can open the Explorer normally by
  • Menu Button + E
  • File Explorer pinned to the taskbar
• 
  I can't open the File Explorer by Start Menu > File Explorer Button
  
• 
  I don't want to restart, I have a lot of work on other desktops, restart solves this problem. Obviously, it is a bug.
  

Steps to reproduce the error:

• open the start menu
• click on file explorer button
  • an error message appears with "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item".

Step 1:





Step 2 & result:





Steps were taken trying to resolve the issue:

• I tried to restart the explorer process from task manager, but with no success.
• I tried to replace the shortcut the file explorer button points at, but still with no hope.
• I checked the permissions of the "explorer.exe" process in "Windows" folder, and I have the correct permissions. I even tried to double click the file "explorer.exe" and it normally opened the explorer without a problem!

I guess it is a problem with the File Explorer button itself in the start menu (A GUI problem), maybe a corrupted registry key!
