I was moving files onto a USB stick from my secondary SSD. The process seemed to stop (speed dropped to zero and data didn’t progress for hours). I stopped the transfer. Now opening File Explorer causes it to crash immediately—can’t access any drives or folders. Google Chrome is also failing to open. After restarting my PC to try and resolve the problem, nothing changed. My system runs a Ryzen 5800X3D with the newest Windows 11 version. Please help if you can.
