How do I troubleshoot a Windows 7 folder unresponsive system suspended animation problem?

The explorer "suspended animation" is really bad, but it is not an open spell. We can take the appropriate settings to slow down, or even avoid the occurrence of this phenomenon.

Solution:

Open the folder window in a separate process.

Just as Internet Explorer browser multiple process Access prevents crashes, we can set the folder window open in a separate process.

Press Win+e to open Windows Explorer and click Tools-> Folder Options.

(If the toolbar is not visible, press "Alt" on the keyboard.) )

Switch to the View tab and check the "Open folder window in a separate process."

Close this picture and expand the picture.

After this setting, the next time you open the folder, it will not open in the layer of this window, but another pop-up window. And we'll see two "Explorer.exe" processes in Task Manager, even if a folder window gets stuck, it doesn't affect the operation of other file Windows.

Change the folder properties to increase the response rate.

When you open a larger file in Windows Explorer, the file is scanned first, and a loop is performed to check all parts of the file to establish an index. If the file is large and there is no index information, the system queries the index of the file for a long time, the CPU utilization rate is also high. Of course, file previews, thumbnails, and so on can also cause slow response. Can be temporarily closed to speed up the reaction.

To cancel an index:

Right-click the target folder/drive and select Properties.

For a folder, first click the Advanced button on the General tab, and in Advanced properties, uncheck "Allow indexing of the contents of files in this folder in addition to file properties."

For a drive, on the General tab, uncheck the check that allows you to index the contents of this drive file in addition to file properties.
