Bug: Explorer Properties window cannot be closed after clicking "open file location"

devCKVargas commented 4 months ago

Description

Opening the File Location of an app by right clicking it from the taskbar would not let me close the app's properties window (explorer.exe) by clicking any buttons, not even if I use SuperF4.

It would only close when I close Files, and there's a delay as well.

Steps To Reproduce

Set Files as default
Right click app icon from taskbar (eg. Visual Studio Code)
Right click app name from the list and select Properties
Choose Open File Location
Files will open
Try to close the Properties window
The window doesn't close (it might close after a couple seconds)

Thanks for the feedback. I don’t see any crashes or exceptions caught by Files in debug.log

Could you check if:

You enabled ‘Open Files as Default Explorer’
You enabled ‘Open Files as Browse dialog or Save dialog’ if you’re using Dev build
You can open Files or Explorer when you click ‘Open File Location’.
