Ads and even more ads. Gotta love the new business model everyone has (although I am quite a bit leary of targeted ads that appear to one based on even local usage of your computer). And we are talking about a program that is embedded through the OS (it's not like one can just uninstall it and put whatever file manager program you want on there when it comes to Windows or Apple even).
Anyway, it seems like they have shut it off for now, but according to the article, the comment that MS gave didn't rule out the possibility of it coming back on. I would suspect that Home users would get the brunt of it at first and after that, eventually the Pro users will get it. Enterprise may or may not be spared, I have seen where things have changed for Enterprise users as well, so anything is possible, but I would eventually say Pro users will get it. It might take longer to happen, but I would be very, verrrrryyyy surprised if it didn't happen.

Microsoft says Windows 11’s File Explorer ads were ‘not intended to be published externally’
The test ads weren’t supposed to be live, but could appear in the future.
