Bug when creating a new folder

Copper Contributor

As of sometime in 2023 I believe, when I create new folders on Windows 11, the navigation bar regularly becomes highlighted, resulting in an inhibitory dropdown, preventing me from naming the folder that I just created or selecting anything underneath the dropdown, until I click on a certain area (e.g. toolbar panel) to close the dropdown. Happens on both my Lenovo desktop and Surface 4 laptop. Seems to happen more often on external hard drive folders, but I might be wrong. I reported this to Windows a while ago via the feedback hub but there's no update yet. Any ideas? Here is a screen recording of the issue: https://imgur.com/GWTzr5G
