    Windows 11 since ever - File Explorer takes forever to show photos sorted by date/descending


    I never understood why File Explorer takes so long to show my photos 2500 photos sorted by creation date/descending. It sucks. I have already deleted my indexes and reindexed them, have deleted thumbnails and generated them again.I've been a Windows Insider for many years and can't remember when this issue started. But the worst sensation is that a third-party file Explorer Files app is much faster than the MS File Explorer. And it has been like this for years I used it. File Explorer brings the files sorted by name and when I change it to Creation Date/Descending, it takes around 30 to 40
