  • I agree to follow Atlas' Code of Conduct
  • I have searched our issue tracker to verify that the issue hasn't been reported already
  • I have searched the Atlas documentation beforehand for a solution
  • I am on the latest version of Atlas, and didn't do an unsupported upgrade

Description

I had Atlas 0.5.0 installed on Windows 11 Pro 25H2 x64, and I updated it to the latest version, Atlas 0.5.0-hotfix.

Some features of Explorer (explorer.exe desktop interface) aren’t working sometimes. For example, I can’t type in the Start menu search box.

Rarely, when I start the computer and log in, I see a black screen and the mouse cursor. Explorer isn’t running. It resolves when I log out and log back in using Ctrl + Alt + Delete.

Sometimes, Explorer consumes excessive resources (CPU), causing the PC to slow down.
