try running these in order:

regsvr32 /u comdlg32.dll

regsvr32 comdlg32.dll

then log off. that might reset it, but no guarantees...

edit: just found this in google. if the above does not work, try this:

If explorer in List mode/detail mode is z to a then open/save will be z to a, open a explorer window and change it to detail mode and make sure it is listing everything from A to Z then make that the global default and it will change how open/save dialogs does it.

This was a old problem I had as well.

    • The same guy who promised AGI in a year, and later he said: yes, but no really.
    • Microsoft and security. 🤣 One day, I received a big bill from Microsoft. I checked the log, and the log (not Azure Premium) only lasted a few weeks, so I was unable to find any information about what happened. I checked the bill, and it showed me that somebody (no information) created a big virtual machine for many weeks, then finally deleted it. I contacted support, and they told me that I will get my money back. 8 months later, it never happened. However, the invoices show some weird movements. They indeed did the reverse, but only in the system, but my CC never got the money back. I had a fight with my bank, and my bank finally showed me records that Microsoft never tried to return my money. What happened, who hacked it, and how? Microsoft was unable to answer. My account had a DFA. Conclusion: I should have reported it to my CC.

    • It's not just you, YouTube confirms missing navigation bar on Android by Aditya Tiwari The online video-sharing giant YouTube took to its community support forum to acknowledge a bug in its Android app that has been bothering users for some time. The said bug, which hides the app's bottom navigation bar, affects both free and premium users on the YouTube app for Android. In other words, affected users may not see the Subscriptions, Notifications, and Library navigation buttons at the bottom of the screen. "We're aware some of you are experiencing issues with the navigation bar for the YouTube App. This might also affect YouTube premium users," YouTube said. "Our teams are actively investigating this issue! We'll update this thread as soon as we have new information." The Google-owned platform is currently working to fix the issue and notes that the problem is affecting Android users living in the US. However, unverified user reports in the comments suggest that the issue has plagued other regions, including India, Germany, Poland, Spain, Nigeria, Australia, and others. Among various brands, there are several mentions from users running devices with Xiaomi's HyperOS software. Some users attempted to uninstall and reinstall the YouTube app, clear the cache, and roll back updates, but were unable to achieve success. It has been months since Android users have reported problems with the app's navigation bar, where it may disappear randomly and return after the app is restarted. With the navigation bar gone on the YouTube Android app, some users reported being unable to upload videos or access the profile button. It's hard to say whether YouTube was working to make it auto-disappear, and things went south. For now, all users can do is wait for a fix from the company. Speaking of new changes, a recent YouTube update has killed support for several older iPhone models. Google confirmed that it will bring more ads to the cheaper YouTube Lite plan.
