Hi,
Clearing file explorer history did not solved the problem for me.
I was forced to delete all files in Downloads folder using CMD.
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Windows 11 hangs when entering Downloads folder and "Working on it..." is displayed.
When trying to close the window I am receiving the message "Windows explorer is not responding"
I have already tried
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
sfc /scannow
Full Disk Cleanup with system files.
Thanks,
AG
Hi,

This solved my problem. I unpinned the Downloads folder from the quick access tab and navigated to the folder via explorer. It worked.
Afterwards, I pinned the folder back to the quick access and it worked again.
