Explorer freezes when getting system notification in Windows 10

I am using Windows 10 (64-bit) build 14393.
I had noticed before that explorer.exe would freeze with no apparent reason. It wasn't until I opened up VLC to play some music that I noticed that whenever VLC sent a system notification for the playing song, explorer.exe would freeze.
I've had to restart it manually all along. I have tried deleting the BagMRU and Bags folders in the registry, but nothing seemed to happen.
I have auto-hide enabled for the taskbar, if that makes any difference.

My explorer also freezes when a notification happens, it seems to be caused by older software (audio driver, Java, ...) and it takes a while for itself to unfreeze...

This seems to be widespread and still happening in 2019. We have several users experiencing this on Windows Server 2016 RDS host, had several contacts with Microsoft support, but "no one knows what could be the cause".
We temporarily solve this (unfreeze) by restarting Windows Explorer (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC to open Task Manager, find Windows Explorer, Restart it).
There is a known issue of Outlook notifications stuck on the bottom right of Windows, and we are about to test disabling all notifications to see if the problem goes away.

A guy solved it like this:
I've stopped the freezing by disabling app notifications as a
workaround ("Show app notifications" set to off). I'll leave this to
run for a while and if stable, will try switching notifications back
on app by app to see if it's a particular one causing the freezes.
