Set to Windows 10 with SwitchExplorer, the address bar can leave the address stuck on the screen
I used SwitchExplorer on a Windows 11 Pro laptop to make File Explorer like Windows 10. There is a bug in the address bar area that leaves text still displayed. Here's one way I've been able to make it happen. Click in the address bar and start typing the location of a networked drive (e.g. "\LHM"), a list of previous entries will pop up. Then if you click on one of them, sometimes the text of that previous address location will stay there. Even if you move the window around the screen, that text stays there. It only seems to go away if you close the original File Explorer window.
It's a little tricky to get it to happen. I'll keep trying to see if I can reproduce it every time.
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with SwitchExplorer or just a "bug" in Windows 11 way of handling File Explorer.
All SwitchExplorer does is provide a convenient GUI to apply the same registry change that everyone else uses to make Windows 11 use the old Explorer. Any display issues with Explorer are possibly Windows 11 bugs or a display driver issue. Having said that, please note that the current version of SwitchExplorer does not kill and restart Explorer when making the switch, so if you have any issue with Explorer, try signing out/in (or restart your PC) and see if that makes a difference (if you haven't done so already).
