Folders not automatically refreshing after KB5032190 update

I work with hundreds of images weekly and have folders open in medium & large thumbnail view. All folders are sorted by name as a default. Before installing KB5032190 update, all folders would refresh automatically without having to constantly hit F5 everytime I edit or duplicate. If I hold CTRL and drag (before KB5032190) to duplicate, the dupes use to automatically be placed in front/before the original. After installing KB5032190, the dupes are now placed at the end of the images in the folder and I have to constantly hit F5 to refresh and place them in the desired order. This even happens when I edit an image and save. The edited image gets placed at the end of the folder until I again hit the F5 key.

I have been searching the internet for many days. I have tried all of the various fixes, rebuild thumbnail cache, system repairs, etc. The only thing I was left with was uninstalling KB5032190. I do not wish to disable Windows update and block this patch from ever returning but looking for a solution or suggestion to this issue.

    Uninstall the problematic update (Settings > Update history > Uninstall updates > KB5032190), and run ie4uinit.exe -show to reset the folder view cache.
