Any time I export a image from photoshop. it break my windows exploration by some how enabling click to open new window.

So if i click My Documents then a folder in there. I would now have 3 windows opens. 1 for each folder i have opened.

I have noticed this ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I EXPORT a image out of photoshop. I've also noticed this problem has been reported multi times.

I have a feeling it's cause by what ever logic they are using to open the export location. So how i can i stop photo shop from opening the file location?

I mean more often then not. I already the folder already.

    What version of photoshop and operating system are you using?

    Your referring to File>Export As?

    Adobe Photoshop Version: 2015.1.2 20160113.r.355 2016/01/13:23:59:59 CL 1059143  x64

    Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit

    And it's any "Export As Png", "Export As", and "Save for Web (legacy)" that cause this problem. I restart the computer and the problem goes away and only shows up after I do a export.

    Sounds like an issue that was fixed in photoshop cc 2017.

    You can update to photoshop cc 2017.1.1 using the Creative Cloud Desktop Application.
