    After the most recent updates the File Explorer situation in Windows 11 24H2 has gotten much worse.

    Often when I click on files, the files do not open immediately but after several seconds.

    I then installed an alternative file explorer from the Microsoft Store and this problem does not happen.

    Microsoft what are you doing with File Explorer!!!

    I just reply to keep this thread alive and share my frustration of having this bug for months now.

    I also have the same issue. This is very annoying.

    It seems that the focus goes back to where it was prior to the action I did.

    For example, if the focus was on the search field and I click on the copy icon, the focus goes back to the search field.

    I have the similar problem. But it happened when I used a USB keyboard.

    I discovered that when I use my laptop keyboard to type something, the issue will be disappeared.

    It would be a workaround solution for me.

    Hope it may help for someone.
