According to feedback from multiple users on Feedback Hub, there is a bug in the file manager of the Win11 22H2 system. When the user is using other applications, the system will automatically open the file manager randomly.
One user wrote in a community feedback thread: “One or more file manager windows are running in the background, and then open an application such as Firefox or Edge browser. After a few minutes, the file manager window will pop up and be in focus state”.
Another user wrote in the post: “While I am using other applications (such as web browsing), the file manager window will randomly jump to the front. This time I am in a meeting on Zoom, and the file manager automatically opens “.
According to the Windows latest report, Microsoft acknowledged these reports and said that this is a known problem, but Microsoft did not acknowledge it in public. The news says that Microsoft is fixing the focus error problem of File Explorer, but it is unclear when the fix will arrive.
