File wont open

[57789hfx]

Windows 10 open a folder and asking for a file the system locks. I have to exit and sign in again.

In order to understand better what we are dealing with here, please download and run the TSG System Information Utility on the affected PC, and then post the results back to this thread.

When you open the folder, can you give us the specific name of the file it's asking for?

Thank you for that. I'll still need this information, please:

When you open the folder, can you give us the specific name of the file it's asking for?

Thank you for that. I'll still need this information, please:

I can open the DOCUMENT section but not any files. Even those that havent been filed yet you cant open them. I tried EXPLORER++ but I had the same effect

 

[lochlomonder]

Even those that havent been filed yet you cant open them.

I don't understand what you mean by this statement. Are you trying to go into My Documents, open files in there, and then the system locks up on you? What sort of files are you trying to open?

Files such as: RECIPES, MANUALS, INSURANCE, etc etc. Plus there are pages that havent been put into files but you cant move them either

Give us a screen shot of these folders and files?

I think you are confusing files with folders. The three examples you gave, Recipes, Manuals and Insurance, sound like folders. When you say there are pages that haven't been put into files yet I assume you mean they are documents that haven't been moved to one of those (or some other) folders? You know when creating documents you can save them right away in whatever folder you want. Or perhaps you're doing some clean up of files that weren't saved in specific folders previously. In any event, you need to be clearer please in exactly what you're trying to do.
