File Explorer freezing and Desktop freezing.
Hello, I'm having this problem on my computer with File Explorer and the Desktop in general. The problem is that whenever I right click on File Explorer or open an application, it just freezes. The problem on the Desktop is whenever I right click on a program, it also freezes. I've had this problem since last year but now I feel like I should report this issue.
Thank you everyone.
Your sincerely,
Safan.
- Hello,
Suggest you to run System File Checker scan:
1. Search for 'command prompt' using Cortana or Windows Search.
2. From results, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
3. Type sfc /scannow command and press Enter key.
4. Let the command complete and then reboot the machine.
If issue still persists, perform clean boot:
