Windows 11 Folder Window Not Showing, Only in Taskbar

After upgrading to Windows 11, opened folders only appear in the taskbar—no window shows up, and Alt+Tab won’t bring them up. How to fix this?

    Restart the Windows Explorer process in Task Manager, then hold down the Ctrl key and click the folder icon on the taskbar to restore the window display.
