Windows 10: Local network transfers continue after they claim they are finished

Hey everybody,

I have no idea if anyone can help me with this, because it's so weird, but here goes.

I recently upgraded a laptop of mine to Windows 10 (clean install). I often transfer files to and from this laptop with a desktop (rng Windows 8.1) on my home network. When I do this, I get the standard copying progress box, which shows the files being sent. The box hits 100%, and goes away, but sometimes it the file has not been completely sent.

If I leave both computers connected and try to access the files from the destination system, after a delay, the transfer seems to complete in the background and the file loads. However, if I don't bother to load the files, then I run into major problems. On my 8.1 box, the file is simply truncated; a few kb are missing from the end of it. This is bad enough, but on my Windows 10 box, opening the folder containing the file causes explorer to crash and I have to restart it in task manager. The next time I reconnect the two computers, it only takes a few seconds for Windows to fix the issue and finish copying the file, but as you can imagine, this is super frustrating.

Any ideas at all? It doesn't happen every single time, but it happens fairly often. It doesn't seem to matter whether I connect using my wifi or if I plug into my router with a CAT-5. I feel like it has to be some kind of background network transfer service that's not working right, but I have no idea how to change/disable it.

Thanks.

:)

 

Modern apps stop working and claim they are desktop apps

Problem keeps on returning. With Photos, Calculator, Store ...

I need another solution instead of making new others.

Yes, Windows automatically creates a restore point when you install desktop apps and new Windows updates, if the last restore point is older than 7 days. You can also create a restore point manually at any time. In
view of the same, I have suggested you to create a manual restore point for that date, whenever you think the PC is working great. However it’s your convenient.



Coming to the second issue, this will happens when system files get impacted. In simple, when some corruption occurs with the registry files or some system files, that point to the file
Associate type. In that scenario, you may require to modify windows registry files to fix the issue. Moreover there is no guarantee that will fix the issue and also it not recommended to do changes for windows registry. Serious
problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly
