    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.

    And in safe mode? I don't think you've commented on that yet.

    - quite a list - note some of these would be covered by a test in safe mode.

    Windows 11 My desktop doesen't automatically refresh

    Suggestion - GPU-Z window Reload (refresh)

    Most items are refreshed automatically. I'll add driver details to items that get refreshed.

    Adding F5 for complete refresh is a good suggestion
