I can't even find anything remotely related to it within the feedback hub to vote on given the feedback hub search indexing is so terrible.
Unbelievable... and it's September 2025, and still not fixed. I keep getting nudged to get new PC's to run Windows 11 because my other PC's are eligible for Windows 11 upgrades, but they run Windows 10, and the File Explorer works much better.
