Open File Explorer windows in separate processes

To have separate processes for each File Explorer window, follow these steps:

  • Search for and launch "File Explorer Options".
  • In the dialog that appears, open the "View" tab.
  • Select the "Launch folder windows in a separate process" option.
  • and do on “Apply” and “OK” to confirm it .

Applies to all versions of Windows 10

File Explorer, which runs through “explorer.exe”, is one of the most commonly used of Windows.

explorer.exe has two distinct roles: the of some basic UI elements such as tasks and providing the graphics ς διαχείρισης αρχείων (graphical file management ).

By default, both of these roles are fulfilled by a single process of “explorer.exe”. So in the event that one item encounters a problem, both Explorer functions show up . It may have happened to you when a File Explorer error results in the momentary loss of the taskbar and its icons of work. Windows then automatically restarts Explorer, restoring the desktop.

Με τα παραπάνω βήματα μπορείτε να απομονώσετε τα δύο βασικά του Explorer, αναγκάζοντας τα παράθυρα του προγράμματος περιήγησης αρχείων να τρέχουν σε ξεχωριστές διεργασίες.

Since version 1903 of Windows 10, this setting is said to be enabled by default. But in all the systems we have been looking for, it is not always. It is worth checking if it is enabled on your Windows 10 device.

Once enabled, File Explorer windows will open in their own process and an error will not affect the disappearance of the taskbar.
