  1. Windows File Explorer : Files and Folders takes a long time during every first instance...


    After the Windows latest update build 1809, My windows 10 Pro, 64 bit, File explorer keeps on showing the status as "Working on it" with the first instance. But when I keep the first instance and open the second instance, the second instance opens up quickly. This problem has started to annoy me, has anybody come across a similar problem? And have you found any resolution to it? If anybody can guide as to how do I overcome this issue, it would be of great help.


    Thanking you in anticipation


    Eagerly awaiting for a guided solution to the issue,

    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

  3. Files and folders take a long time to load in File explorer

    This just started happening this week. Whenever I try to open file explorer in windows 10 it takes a very long time for my files and folders to appear. I have tried using the DISM command but that did not fix the problem

    Generating a .txt based file list in Windows 7

    I want to be able to generate a .txt file that lists all the files and folders in a specific folder on my PC, but don't know the name of any programs that do that. Searched on google a bit and came up with this guide, but it's for XP and I can't seem to find some of the folder options to modify the .bat file. Any suggestions? Thanks

    http://www.theeldergeek.com/file_list_generator.htm

    EDIT: The .bat file will do what I want if it is in the folder I want to do it in, but the option I want to add is having the right click option that it shows.
