Hi. After starting computer and opening any application windows explorer behaving strange. When I delete or rename a file or folder I can see results of that only after manually refreshing the folder. Otherwise file or folder keeps the old name, and if I was deleting it file is still there and only after manually refreshing the folder it disappears. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Thats not the answer FJ, and I also dont have the answer but I saw it I think at PC-World where they had a registry tweek to make the refesh automatic whenever you did anything.
The behavior described by az0000000 is normal for XP and even earlier versions of Windows and cannot be fixed by reinstallation or degragging the drive!
