Windows 10: Windows 10 File Manger not showing my drives

When I open file manager, it just says working on it. it does not show any of m drives. I know my drives are working as it I go to the bar at the top and type a drive letter for example "e:" it'll take me to the drive and I can browse it normally, however most of the icons are missing. I also notice that if I rename a file or delete it, I need to reopen file explorer for the changes to be visible. I am on the latest version of windows, and i have already run the sfc command and rebooted several times


any suggestions?

:)

 

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

Stored files in Hard Drive

You can use Windows search. Just search for *.* on a desired drive. When list is done just arrange them by size LOL.

You can do it via command line as well and make an output text file showing files and their sizes (but without arrangement)
