when i either delete or rename a photo in my shared photos folder, the change
dosn't happen immediately like it used to. I have to close the window, then
re-open it to see my changes. Anyone know why, and how to fix? Windows XP
SP2 Home Edition.
 
Howdy,

Not sure why you have a lag time. But If you are in Windows Explorer, simply do a View, then Refresh from its main menu.
You do not have to exit out of Win Explorer.
 
thanks, clicking view then refresh shows me my changes, but i would still
like to make it go back to happening right away like it used to.
 
I wonder if you see the same symptoms if you are in non-photo folders.
btw, do you have thumbnails turned on? Just wonder if that adds to the delay.
 
yes,,,using thumbnail view for photos. and i tried renaming a file in my
documents, and the change in there was immediate.
 
some new info that may help troubleshoot my problem.....i cut the folder
which i was renaming which contained three photos from the "shared pictures"
folder, and pasted it into the "my pictures" folder. When it was in the "my
pictures" folder, any name change I made to it occured immediately. When I
cut and pasted it back into the "shared photos" folder, it went back to my
having to refresh the window to see the name change.
 
i tried your link, and only got a blank page. i just created another folder
on my c drive for photos, and i am using that instead of the "shared
pictures" folder. and, i definately have searched and searched, but with no
luck finding an answer.
