I can't tell you why it happens, but I can tell you you're not alone. The same thing happens to me from time to time and it's not just in relation to one program. Once it starts, clicking on a name in contacts doesn't open it, clicking on an mp3, word document or note in file explorer doesn't open it. I can open them with Rescoe using the drop down menu, but that's it.

I assume it's because of some third-party software I've installed. I do a lot of messing around, so it would be hard for me to isolate the problem.

My solution has always been to do a soft reset. It goes right back to working normally once I do it. That's a good enough work-around for me.

Let us know if you figure out a better solution.
