For a very long time I have been having this issue where my file explorer would start bugging out and stop loading the thumbnails of all files and folders if they are zoomed in enough to preview what folders contain or how the files should look like.

During that problem, the loading green bar at the directory text box appears as if it is trying to search for something, with no sign of stopping.

The more I let this keep going, the worse it gets. It eventually reaches the point where the disks would be blank.
This happens everywhere. The desktop, SSD disk, HDD disk. Everywhere

The temporary fix is to either restart the pc or log out and back in to refresh everything.

Keeping the launcher up for a very short time does not bring this issue.
