Since yesterday I can no longer move frames via the black arrow. It works with the cursor arrows on my keyboard, but this takes a lot of time (and annoyance)
I can adjust the frames, enlarge them, etc.
When I try to move it I get a local web page with ....InDesign%20Snippets/Snippet_31DC168C8.idms

Is this a bug or should I check or uncheck something?
I have now uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign 25, but this problem still persists in other documents created in InDesign.
If anyone knows the answer I would really appreciate it.

Hi Barb

You 're right (and Robert). It seems i had indeed an update yesterday afternoon for Win 11 24H2. (at 11.24) I have undone this opdate with Windows update/history of updates/undo installation of updates (I have the dutch version so hopefully i wirte it correct for the englisch versions)

The problem is now solved!!! Hopefully it's not comming back with onter futere updates with windows.
Thank you both for helping!!

Just future readers - another solution that doesn't require rollbacks:

Hi @reinoud:

Windows can update in the background unless you have updates disabled. Could you please check your version? Press Windows key + R (win + R), and type winver, and then share a screenshot? We are looking to see if you have the Win 11 24H2 update,
