Issue with iPadOS 26.2.1. Automatic Upgrade

Has anyone had an issue with the iPadOS 26.2.1 upgrade? Mine was upgraded this morning, and since then my iPad seems to have a mind of its own. Trying to operate the normal functions is very sluggish and difficult, and it will not let me change screens as usual. When I tried to close the screens that were open, they would not move when I swiped across to remove them. They seem to be stuck! Is there a fix to this upgrade because something is definitely wrong with it?
