Unable to create new project upgrading to Trados 2022

Question

After upgrading from Trados 2019 to Trados 2022, I am unable to create any new projects. The file list in the Wizard remains empty 
 Handling existing projects (i.e. ncluding adding files to them) works fine. 
 Any ideas/help is/are appreciated....

 So it looks like these templates are corrupt, unfortunately. Something similar happened to me longer time ago and I was forced to recreate my templates from scratch. 
 New, fresh templates are stored here: 
 C:\Program Files (x86)\Trados\Trados Studio\Studio17\ProjectTemplates 
 In Studio 2022 go to File -> Setup -> Project templates. Make sure you do not have a template called Default or SDL Trados. If you have such one, delete it. Should you have only one of these, import the other one. If both are present, delete the one NOT declared as standard (shown in bold) and import it again from that location. After doing so please try to create a new project based on this very template. Now it should work. If so, declare this template to standard, delete all other and recreate.

 Using "Browse" has the same result&mdash;no files in the project wizards file list. I cannot tell, if MS Explorer is installed, but hasn't it been dropped already by Microsoft? I seem not to have it on my Win11 machine. And in my case the file list remains empty too. So it looks like S2022 has a limited functionality in Windows 11. Great, we have detected a new culprit (bug?) here.
