Windows 11 file explorer is slow and lag. When using the up and down arrows it goes very slow compared to windows 10 which is super fast. It is also slow when opening folders as well as selecting either with the mouse or with shift + arrows.

    You may try this out

    The only option that solves this is when I use it in full screen (F11), as it says on the site you posted. As I've done three updates to windows since it was released, and so far they haven't fixed the most important one that everyone uses.

    I found a solution for now, had to switch to old file explorer (windows 10) with Winaero Tweaker application, it works fine.
