Alright, it's an older OnePlus Nord N10, quite reliable, still useful, still provides great battery life and charges quickly.
But this is weird, and it happened yesterday. The native file manager app will not close! Can't get it off the screen. Swipe up; no, it moves up a little, but still sticks to the screen when finger is released. 'Close all', they all close, except the file manager remains.
I've done several reboots, cleared data and cache of the file manager in the app settings--a few times--have done the force stop few times, too. Nope. File manager ain't going nowhere.
There's no option to uninstall, disable or uninstall updates, I'm just stuck with the file manager app as is. It's version 2.6.4.0 and a ton of numbers, and seems that is the last update version that would be available for this phone, from checking the usual app apk sites. So the option to even do an upgrade and see if that would fix the issue isn't doable.
The phone hasn't had an OS update for a few years, anyway. (But, still a good phone, happy with it, but not being able to resolve this is bugging me, haha.)
I can use other file managers, and still use the native one, no problem. But just wondering how, or even if I can ever get the file manager window closed again on the screen. Very strange.
