Camera breaks, File Explorer stops responding
What broke
February’s update decided cameras are overrated. After installing KB5051987, Windows stops recognizing that your camera is turned on, rendering video calls into a guessing game of “can they see me?” Meanwhile, File Explorer refuses to open folders — clicking Desktop, Documents, or Pictures does absolutely nothing. The sidebar arrows to expand subfolders? Also nothing. It’s like File Explorer decided to take the month off. At least the update also introduced “faulty preview animations” in the taskbar, so you have something broken to look at while your files are inaccessible.
