Some time ago, I did a fully new installation of Windows 11 Pro 24H2 (26100.3476) on a separate partition of my SSD.
So I could multiboot and, if necessary, compare with the 23H2 install on the other partition.
All went well, except for my older Epson scanner not functioning anymore in 24H2, which seems to be a known issue. That I solved by using the scanner via VirtualBox in an older Windwos version, which is enough for me, don't scan very many times.
All problems I met, I have been solving myself by searching the Internet and the ElevenForum for solutions, but now I have a rather small but annoying problem with the file explorer.
Instead of expanding downwards the command window, which you open by clicking the three dots on the toolbar, it is expanding to the top, thus falling off the screen. Made some screenshots:
This is when the Explorer window is situated in the lower half of the screen:
And this when situated at the upper half:
The most used one, to change window layout, is on top, so I have to move the window down every time I want to change that.
I don't remember if this was so right from the beginning or in some later point, but I don't see if I did something wrong that changed this...
It seems to me there should be a very simple solution, just can't find it until now.
Is this familiar to anybody and how can I change it to expand downwards again?
Thanks in advance for any answer!
