Deleting files in Win Explorer - lose highlight after each deletion?

Is there a way to delete a highlighted file in Windows Explorer, and have the next file be highlighted, rather than outlined? When reviewing files for deletion, it would be nice if you could step through a directory, file by file, to delete files or not, one by one, using the Preview Pane to review each file. As it currently works for me, you can step up and down the file list using the up/down arrows, and each file becomes highlighted, but as soon as one is deleted, the following file becomes outlined, not highlighted, and it takes a click to highlight the file, or a up/down arrow, but that skips the outlined file in the process. You can select multiple highlighted files by holding down the Shift key while using the up/down arrows, but that's not quite the intended process. Can this be changed to have the next file be highlighted, following deletion of a highlighted file?

 

I cannot highlight files in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

1) Does this issue occur with any specific files in the File explorer?

2) Does this issue occur n any specific drive?

3) Does this issue occur on Files on Desktop?

As a work around, I suggest you to highlight the files of the desktop(if any) and check.

I suggest you to check the issue in Safe Mode and see if it’s working slowly.

To enter Safe Mode in Windows 10:

• 
  Restart your PC.
  
• 
  Press Shift + restart
  before the Windows logo appears.
  
• 
  Click See Advanced Repair Options.
  
• 
  Click Troubleshoot.
  
• 
  Click Advanced Options.
  
• 
  Click Windows Startup Settings.
  
• 
  Click Restart.
  
• 
  You then see a list where you can choose
  Safe Mode or Safe Mode with Networking (depending on whether you think you’ll need the Internet).
  

I also suggest you to run system file checker scan and check the issue.

Sfc /scannow will inspect all of the important Windows files on your computer, including Windows DLL files. If System File Checker finds an issue with any of these protected files, it will replace it.

Follow the steps:

• 
  Press Windows key + X and select
  Command prompt (Admin).
  
• 
  At the Command Prompt, type:
  sfc/scannow
  
  
  

Hope this helps. Please reply to us with the status of the issue.

Thanks.

 

IPad Autoplay - question 2 - edit devices in device listing


A second issue popped up while I was trying to sync my iPad. There are multiple instances of the same device in my device list. I only have one iPad, but it shows up three times (see the highlighted entries).



Is there any way to delete the duplicate entries? The first and third entries (both named David's iPad) are apparently unused.

Thanks
