Hello Everyone,
File explorer on the taskbar opens very slowly, like 5 second after click. However when i use keyboard shortcut "microsoft + e", it opens instantly.
Another interesting thing is when my laptop uses nvidia driver, file explorer opens instantly without any problem. So, i guess problem's to do with the nvidia driver.
But, i don't know what to do at this point. Can anyone help?
Intel i5-8250U, Nvidia MX150, 16 gb Ram, 256 SSD, Windows 10 Home - build 1709

This is a common complaint for taskbar pinned apps. If the WinKey + E still opens instantly, then a setting in the "folder options" is causing the taskbar issue when Explorer is pinned. You might want to start by try turning off indexing to see what happens. If playing around with these settings doesn't fix the issue, then go to your username folder\appdata\roaming\microsoft\internet explorer\quick launch\user pinned\taskbar. Right click on the FileExplorer shortcut and change it's path directly to c:\windows\explorer.exe . Jack E/NJ

However, I cannot change the target for file explorer. Why is that?

Congratulations! I'm guessing that the first thing you tried --- setting default views that didn't seem to work at first --- finally took hold after a full power off cold re-boot. Either that or some magic happened.
