Are you clicking on that icon or just placing the mouse over the icon?
Can you press WIN+E and see if that works?

WIN is the key on the keyboard with the Windows logo.

To add, the icons in the upper right corner of a window have Minimize, Close and Maximize/Restore. The Full Screen is different, a separate feature, and usually reached by pressing F11 or on Notebooks maybe Fn + the F11 key, fills the screen and removes some Toolbars when used, gives more visual room for what is open/in focus.

Full Screen F11 works fine on my Notebook as I described before. But with "all opened Explorer Windows" it only works with the one in focus/in the forefront.
