Are you seeing same behaviour? I can't replicate right now, as I don't have access to a system.
So you mean the trick does work?I've never really kept track or have noticed it before, as some of the bigger folders and file numbers are in Windows System32 and SysWow64, which I hardly access. But, after switching to and from full screen, those folders don't "populate", they're there! Interesting.
I just tried it for the first time as I was not aware there was a full screen mode and it made no difference.Are you seeing same behaviour? I can't replicate right now, as I don't have access to a system.
I am finally at my PC, and trick did work for me. Opening super large folders (eg. System32, large music folder, etc) is slightly faster after doing fullscreen and back to window mode.I just tried it for the first time as I was not aware there was a full screen mode and it made no difference.
With an SSD drive at times, it can be hard to tell. I have another notebook that isn't as powerful as the one I used last night, so I may play around with it more just to seeSo you mean the trick does work?
Pls do update how that goes.With an SSD drive at times, it can be hard to tell. I have another notebook that isn't as powerful as the one I used last night, so I may play around with it more just to see
On that other laptop, even though I'm running the Kaspersky beta, I really can't see or tell too much of a difference. It's still quick either way.Pls do update how that goes.
It’s completely unknown what causes this speed-up of the otherwise sluggish File Explorer — and whether there are side effects of any kind. We suspect that Windows 11 switches off some indexing options as soon as you switch to full screen mode. This then leads to the File Explorer displaying the content at lightning speed.
I haven't tested it on any other machine because this is the only system I have with Win11 installed. Difference is not night and day but it definitely is slower compared to without using the fullscreen trick. With the trick Files/folders load before it has time to show "working on it" under size column.On that other laptop, even though I'm running the Kaspersky beta, I really can't see or tell too much of a difference.

Idk what's causing this but it shouldn't be an indexer issue because I have disabled indexer (by disabling Windows search service) on my system.I read an article on this topic yesterday morning and it explained that it was most noticeable when opening files with a very large amount of data inside, I couldn't find that article but did find one that reposted the same one as Brambedkar59. In this article they presume it triggers an indexing setting.
This weird Windows 11 bug drastically speeds up File Explorer
Windows 11's File Explorer isn't that fast, but with this trick you can make it much more responsive.www.pcworld.com
I remember back when you reinstalled the OS (pre Win 7?) or added a large amount of data to a file, the indexer would take off and bog the machine down so I'm sure MS put some limits on indexing to cure that, which means if you knew how to go about it, that setting could be changed.
me tooI just tried it for the first time as I was not aware there was a full screen mode and it made no difference.
And to be honest, same with myself Chrome yep, Explorer, didn't knowme too
Now that's a quote of the day.Turn on your indexer's boys, live large
