Impossible to use selectDlg or selectDialog on Win11

Any help?

Didn't work.
I'm reinstalling Windows right now.

A new fresh installation of Windows 11 solved the problem... =/

Don't have windows at hand but is the behaviour reproducible when you try to open a file by hand? In any adobe apps with Folder.selectDialog() (i.e. Illustrator…). In any non Adobe Apps (manually) ?

If you can narrow it down to the single Folder selectDialog (or selectDlg()), then that would be a bug due to the update, and you woudl need to report.
Sorry I can't be more useful here.
