    Problem with Explorer and file dialogs

    I'm having a problem with File Explorer and with file dialogs. It is similar to some of those reported here but also there are differences in some respects.

    • Windows 10, up-to-date.
    • Problem began after the February "patch Tuesday" update.
    • Appears randomly--slightly less frequently since the March update, but still occurring. Sometimes when machine is first started.
    • Symptoms are that File Explorer windows sit indefinitely saying "Working on it", same applies to file dialogs too.
    • Also Google Chrome becomes very slow at loading web pages: > 5 minutes, but Edge is not affected.
    • Restarting Explorer does NOT work, but restarting the computer does--BUT restarting takes much longer than usual, again >= 5 minutes.
    Any suggestions? This computer came with Windows 10, so I cannot revert to an earlier version.

    I have to say that Windows 10 is by far the least reliable version I've encountered. Even free, it isn't good value!

    Uploading Image Files dialog box not including JPEG files

    Hello,

    If you have a jpeg 2000 file format it will not work with Internet Explorer due to incompatibility or security reasons.

    We suggests that you try the steps below:

    Method 1: Reset zones to default

    • On Internet explorer > Go to Tools.
    • Click Security > Click on Reset all zones to default level

    Method 2:

    • Go to the website you want to upload the files.
    • Click on Tools drop down.
    • Choose Compatibility View Settings > Then add the website.
    • Refresh the page and try to upload the files again.

    Let us know how it goes.
