Windows Explorer (Explorer.exe) causing problem to Steam Games Apps (Serious Bug Report)
When open Windows Explorer (Aka. My Computer) left before open any games from Steam , any games not set the screen resolution as the same as the native resolution (Example 2560x1600 display set 1920x1080 game resolution in game settings) , the game would launch but will immediately crash and cannot be fixed without END EXPLORER.EXE PROCESS IN TASK MANAGER AND RE-RUN IT or by restart the PC.

Sometimes even without open Windows Explorer (Aka. My Computer) , this bug still happens.

This problem always happen after Windows 11 2023 Fall Update. (Windows 11 23h2)

All updates from Windows Update are installed. All drivers are up to date.

No Performance Optimizer software were used.

This is not related with graphic driver. I have already used DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) , sfc/scannow & dism command.

Switching from Intel to Nvidia graphic driver don't help.

Only by restart or end explorer.exe fix the issue without restart the PC.

Today I was notified that Microsoft released the KB5032288 (December 4, 2023) update for my Windows 11 23h2

Interestingly, it seems this update claims to fix many issues related to "Windows Explorer".

Here are some examples :

● This update addresses an issue that affects File Explorer. When you press Shift + F10, the shortcut (context) menu does not open.

● This update addresses an issue that affects File Explorer windows. When you do not expect them, they appear in the foreground.

● This update addresses an issue that affects File Explorer. The options in the left pane show the wrong state.

● This update affects the shortcut (context) menu. Its performance is now better when you open it on the desktop and in File Explorer.

Smells like they fixed what they broke - atypical Microsoft - quick to patch - slow to realize "oh yeah we should have tested that"
