If you’ve updated your system to version 24H2 of Windows 11, you might have come across an annoying issue with File Explorer. This glitch impacts the "See more" menu, making it difficult to use.
File Explorer is the tool you use to navigate your files and folders. It’s usually straightforward, but with this update, some users are finding that the three-dot "See more" menu isn’t behaving as expected.
What’s the Problem?
The "See more" menu, which offers options like "Select All" and "View Properties," is supposed to appear right below your mouse cursor. Instead, it’s shooting up to the top of the screen—and in some cases, it’s completely out of sight. If you’re using File Explorer in full-screen mode, you might find that certain menu options are entirely inaccessible.
Frustrating? Absolutely. But don’t worry—there’s an easy fix.
The Workaround
To bypass this glitch, use File Explorer in windowed mode instead of full-screen mode. Here’s how:
- Click the square icon in the top-right corner of the File Explorer window (next to the "X" for closing it).
- This will resize File Explorer, allowing you to share the screen with other applications.
- Once it’s in windowed mode, the "See more" menu should become accessible again, even if it’s not perfectly positioned.
A Permanent Fix is Coming
The good news? Microsoft is aware of this issue and is actively working on a fix. While waiting for the update, the workaround above will help you and your team stay productive.
