Explorer.exe freezes occasionally

Open hemanti0503 opened this issue 6 months ago • 5 comments

I'm on Windows 11 23H2 and use these commands (or analog) for each of my 7 virtual desktops (invoked by PowerToys keyboard shortcuts).

VirtualDesktop11.exe -GetDesktop:0 VirtualDesktop11.exe -GetDesktop:0 -MoveActiveWindow VirtualDesktop11.exe -GetDesktop:0 -MoveActiveWindow -Switch

I can't reliably reproduce it, but it seems to happen with all three commands. The windows GUI freezes and all I can do then is to switch users (Ctrl-Alt-Del is the only short cut that still works) and restart Windows Explorer from the Task Manager for my original (frozen) account.

Is there any way to debug this?
