    Windows 11, Windows Explorer becoming "Not Responding" after opening and clicking anything....


    Starting last night, Windows Explorer started constantly going into "Not Responding" after opening and clicking anything/anywhere. So far I've done a clean boot and attempted to install a repaired version of Windows, though couldn't find one according to recovery settings.

    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
