Thanks for the report, have you tried reinstalling Files?
Make sure to export your settings by going to Files settings > Advanced > Export. then Import your settings from Files settings > Advanced > Import after reinstalling.

Yes I tried like 3 or 4 times both stable and preview but it didn't work. Almost all my settings same with standart so I didn't exported them. But I remember I just change preview to acrylic and "set files for default file manager" to on.

2 weeks later still no progress. That's sad.

There still hasn't been a way to constantly reproduce this, Only you and T-i-a-7 have reported it. Unfortunately there no error in the log to go off either.

I'm using kaspersky as a antivirus. Can it cause to problem? @T-i-a-7 are you using same?
