I have recently downloaded the 3.28.9 version of QGIS and I am having repeated issues of shapefiles disappearing and parts of shapefiles not selecting when pressed. The shapefile disappears when zooming in and the virtual area field in the attribute table becomes a random negative value.

To fix this I have ran the shapefile through multipart to single part, and then fix geometries. I then have to overwrite the current shapefile as copying and pasting the new polygon doesn't work either. This seems to work with the feature but once I edit the polygon it reverts back to this state.

It has only started happening since this updated QGIS download which makes me think it is a version issue rather than repeated broken geometries. If anyone else has had this issue, please let me know how I can resolve it as it keeps happening.

I've been having this problem with point shapefiles since upgrading to QGIS 3.23.3 Lima. Same shapefiles didn't have this problem with previous versions of QGIS. I solved the issue by removing the *.QIX file associated with the shapefile. The QIX file seems to be unnecessary as I can perform everything I need without it.
