  1. Windows file search does not auto refresh


    So recently windows updated and i was using the search function at the upper right. Before the update, as soon as I type even a letter the whole file explorer will refresh to the most relevant thing. Now I had to type it all out and then hit enter for it to show what is searched. How can I fix that? Windows file search does not auto refresh 149d570c-ae36-4b28-938c-55c3e3d15d9c?upload=true.jpg

    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.

    WINDOWS 10 GETS AUTO REFRESHED EVERY 30 SEC

    Hi Rajat,

    The auto refresh of Windows can be resolved by using the System Maintenance troubleshooter.

    To perform common maintenance tasks in Windows, such as cleaning up unused files and shortcuts, try using the System Maintenance troubleshooter to automatically find and fix problems. For example, the System Maintenance troubleshooter looks for unused files
    and shortcuts that you can clean up or remove so that your computer can run faster.

    Please follow the steps to run System Maintenance troubleshooter on the computer:


    • Type “Control Panel” on the search box.

    • Click on Troubleshooting.

    • Click on View all option on the left side of the Windows.

    • Click on System Maintenance option.

    • Click on Next and follow the onscreen instructions to troubleshoot the issue.
    Please revert if Windows still get auto refreshed.

    After file operations, rename, delete, etc., the file manager fails to update itself. After each operation I must press F5 to update the file list in file manager. sfc - did not found any violations.
