Computer Problem/Question

Probably can't be reset until it can connect to the web to download any needed updates.

Does the mouse/trackpad behave correctly in all other interactions with the system? Are the folders actually on your desktop, or are they shortcuts to a remote location (like a NAS or cloud storage (like OneDrive/Google Drive))? Is the folder path to an attached storage device that isn't currently attached? Did you have other devices on your home network in Idaho that don't exist at your new place? Have you tried letting it sit for a while after you try to open the folder to see if something is attempting to connect and then times out?

ETA: I did a web search and some people had problems with File Explorer when using a custom display scaling. You might try using a standard scaling setting or even just 100% to see if it's related.

ETA: When do you expect to have Internet connectivity? Do you have a smartphone that you can use as a hotspot to see if it's Internet connectivity related (easy if your PC is a laptop)?
