File explorer not refreshing after deleting files in search


Using Windows 10 Home.
This problem only happens if I'm performing a search.
If I search within a folder for say *.* and then delete a file, the list of files does not refresh.
The file remains listed even though it's been deleted.
If I manually refresh then the file disappears from the list. Same thing happens if I undo the delete.
I need to hit F5 to make the file reappear in the search list.

Anyone else having this problem or know a fix? Thanks.

Seems to be a Windows 10 prob. I went back to 8.1 and everything was fine.

 

Only write one number to log file and delete old ones?

Hey,

I'm trying to have some software read from a .text file a number (GPU Temp) but the software will only the first number in a list (Or the first anything)

Is there a way to have to log file delete the previous entries and write the new number in it's place without any headers?


EDIT:

Sorry I'll try again.

I have some webcam software that can read a number (or whatever) from a text file and then it displays the number as an overlay.

See here: http://10.244.193.13:8081/

I was trying to use GPU-z to do this but as it logs as a list the webcam software can't update properly (also it reads the headings of the file and displays them instead)

Is there anyway to alter the logging to only output just the number (GPU Temp) and to delete the old numbers so the new value is the only value in the file.

 

Must refresh to see deleted files in file explorer

Why is my window not refreshing automatically when i delete a file in the file explorer?

I tried the fix by @Pinaki Mohanty, but it's only effective in adding a file.

Method 1:

Follow the steps to reset the IconCache for File Explorer:

• Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Task Manager.
• Locate Explorer.exe process under Processes tab. Right Click on it and select End Task.
• Click on File menu and then choose Run new task.
• Type cmd inside the box and hit Enter.
• Type the following commands and hit Enter:
• CD /d %userprofile%\AppData\Local
• DEL IconCache.db /a
• EXIT
• Now, click on File menu again and choose New task.
• Enter “explorer.exe” inside the Run box and hit Enter.

My windows is updated, and I don't know if there is a setting that was changed. Please help!
