There is no doubt  that "Filedia" is the answer.

 

But it looks likely there are some reasons for the Open dialog (window) suddenly disappearing.

A common cause is that an add-on (Autolisp or other application) was loaded and it sets "Filedia" to "0" and after the execution it doesn't set it back to "1".

Please mark "Accept as Solution" and "Like" if my reply resolves the issue and it will help when others need helps.
