    Hi,

    All users in my company who use Windows 11 are having the same problem.
    We verified this issue as of 5/20/2024.

     

    According to the dev tools console, it's a cookie blocking, but I don't know how to resolve this.

    The problem started out of nowhere, I don't know if it is linked to a Microsoft Edge or Windows 11 update.

     

     

     

    Can anyone shed some light please?

      i would would like to know why its not opening as well. i did all the requirements, but when i click nothing happens.

      Edit: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/view-in-file-explorer-option-unresponsive-for/6edff0f9-e5f7-474a-89a6-8ca16c68bde7

      looks like rolling back or uninstalling and going back to an older version of Edge
