Windows 11's latest update includes a free File Explorer flashbang bug for dark mode users wanting to relive their early Counter-Strike days

The file explorer tabs lacks functionality.

In a move that no longer seems even remotely surprising, a recent update to Windows 11 has introduced a new bug. While this one is fairly innocuous compared to others in recent times, dark mode users might want to be a touch wary about opening up File Explorer. That's because in some cases, the window will go completely white upon opening, effectively flashbanging you, CS-style.

It hardly seems fair, does it? Here I am, searching through the world of tech to report on the latest news, trends, and events and Microsoft, once again, serves it to me on a plate. Well, The Verge holds that honour, as this is where I learned about the File Explorer bug in Microsoft's KB5070311 update for Windows 11.
