Hi SimhaVL,

Open with Explorer opens all files in all views, so exceeding the threshold will cause the issue.

As a workaround, to use Open with Explorer the list must have items organized into folders in amounts less than the list view threshold in the root of any container.

Try to move the files to different folders and keep the number of files below list view threshold limit to compare the result.
