Windows 10: Win 10 : What is this green bar at the top of windows explorer?

Win 10 version 1809 build 17763.107

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...08/unknown.png

Recently reinstalled win 10 on a fresh SSD and I noticed there is a green bar at the top of windows explorer. It looks like the loading bar, but it NEVER goes away, it just slowly creeps to the edge and stays there FOREVER.

It seems to do this if I use the "large icons" view, even if the folder has almost nothing in it. For example, 10 jpeg files in a folder, all thumbnails have loaded and the green bar still stays there forever.

I have no network drives mapped.

Does anyone know how to figure out what is causing this and stop it?

Windows 10 Tweaks

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 bar keep jumping to top


Hi Shawn.

Can you help with file explorer scroll bar that keep on jumping to the top. I actually knew it since few builds back. I thought it's already resolved. That was why, last week when I got an offer of free upgrade on my samsung ativ running win 8.1n didn't think much, just hit the button and upgraded to Win 10. Later I found my file list on the explorer keep jumping to the top just like the previous trial I have in other PC.
Can you help me with that? (I already sent feed back to MS through Windows Feedback app)

Thank in advance.

Kevin
