    With Windows 11 the spacing between lines in lists of files has been almost doubled - this means in directories with lots of files in a lot more scrolling is needed to find the file you want, and it is harder to see all the files at a glance. Please either reinstate the original Win10 spacing or provide an option to revert it to closer spacing.It's also very irritating to have to click the "Show more options" when a file is right clicked in order to get to most of the operations I carry out on files. Can we have the full list show again, OR the option to to revert to that, OR the ability to

    Win 11 File Explorer layout is worse than in Win 10

    Problems with File Explorer in Win 10 (64bit)

    I installed win 10 on a new machine. Whenever I'm in File Explorer I scroll down the list of files and usually within 50 secs explorer will return to the top of the listing. This also happens if I'm trying to rename a file, in this case it reverts back
    to the original file name and goes back to the top. When there are hundreds of files in any given directory you can imagine I'm getting pretty ticked off with the whole thing. I tend to end up using my Win 7 pc instead. Also every time I go into a directory
    File Explorer wants to redo the Indexing. Surely the reason for indexing is to do it once and then whenever there's a change (Not constantly like it seems to do now)
