Google suggests it's related to Quick Access caches. Did you install any Explorer tweaks or add-ons?

nah basically debloating, could it be because of disabling quick access?

I don't see Quick Access disabled in your preset. The articles point to cache corruption, and have you try to clear them.

i have had similar happen with an external drive, and it turned out to be the drive itself failing.
