Visual Studio - "browse files" window not responding in any case + closes Visual Studio

Hello I'm using Visual Studio 2022 professsional.

I have problem with all things which uses window for "browsing files" to select e.g. location of the new project or adding existing project to solution.

The window typically looks like you want to save something in notepad as "save as".

Issue is that the window is not responding from the beginning after it pop ups, and after couple of seconds it closes the whole Visual Studio without any error message.

What I've tried:
- delete things related to VS from
%appdata%
%appdata%
,
- update the Visual Studio,
- update & disable extensions in VS,
- trying to repair the installation from the VS Installer,
- reinstall Visual Studio.

Nothing helps and I'm irritated, because I can't do anything now 😦
