Double click won't open file dialog - Photoshop

Question

Double clicking to open a new file sometimes fails to show the [open file] dialog box in photoshop 23.4.2

This is hard to reproduce as it happens occasionally.

Then trying to do anything in photoshop is not working because there's the sound when you're trying to click outside of a modal dialog (but the file open dialog is not showing/ not in front so you could close it)

end up having to close photoshop from task manager

I noticed something similar, sometimes nothing in Photoshop responds to click, window is there but it does not respond on my input. It is happening on Ps start. The only way to get to normal is to close window through task manager and to start Photoshop again. Can not say why this is happening ocasionally.
