    Icons in my computer or windows explorer won't refresh automatically!


    Dear Community!



    In recent days, I have found that even after creating an empty folder on my computer, the created folder does not automatically appear in the window, only after pressing Ctrl + R or the right mouse button -> refresh. It's annoying enough to work like this. I ask for your help as soon as possible!



    The system is the latest version: Windows 10 Pro

    Version: 2004.



    The whole system is still new, it has been freshly installed on a completely empty ssd drive 2 days ago, all current drivers and updates are installed on it.



    Thanks,



    Gabor

    :)

    what icons are you referring to?
    In the Windows Explorer list or desktop?

    Automatic refresh doesn't work in File Explorer, Desktop, Recycle etc.


    Same in the safe mode, no changes...

    I have tried pretty much all those suggestions from various sites, but none of them worked for me.
    What I have seems to be a major issue, they even call it WEDR bug.
    The only thing that slightly changed recently... sometimes, a few times I managed to get automatic refresh for the Desktop, if I for example do the right click and create a new folder, it does create instantly and is visible straight away.... hoewever this never happens in Windows Explorer... I think I once got a file in C: to be processed automatically but thats it... and never had ANY automatic refresh for any of the folders and files on external drives.

    Windows Explorer refuses to refresh Explorer

    Masterchef,

    I have had this problem and so have lots of other people. None of the suggested solutions I found on the internet had anything other than a temporary effect. The problem eventually went away of its own accord but still rears its ugly head from time to time. I only kept a few links on the subject -
    Desktop or Explorer does not refresh automatically in Windows
    Windows Explorer doesn't refresh by itself - Microsoft Community
    windows file list does not auto refresh-update - Microsoft Answers [Windows 7]
    Windows Explorer doesn't refresh when moving-deleting - TechNet [Windows 7]

    When the problem reappears, I restart the computer. If that does not resolve matters then I accept the situation and don't waste my time chasing non-solutions. You might wish to consider adopting the same approach.

    All the best,
    Denis
