Windows Explorer keeps freezing for no reason, all solutions tested

Hi,
I have had a problem with the file explorer on Windows 11 for a long time. It often happens that after opening it, I do not see the icons and all files have a standard white card icon. I can't right-click on any file to rename it, for example, because the entire file explorer freezes and can only be disabled via the task manager. Sometimes, when I successfully enter a new name, when I try to save it, I get a message that my file does not exist. After restarting the explorer, I can change this name, or the name has already been changed. I tried SFC scanning, checked temperatures and my computer is not overheating. Generally, it is very efficient, the only problem I have is with the file explorer.
I attached a recording and a screenshot.
