Some users of our product are complaining that network connection
information is not updated in the window without a refresh. Is there
something that I can do to enable automatic network connection status
updates?
 
Mark,

Are you referring to an Explorer window?
Windows Explorer refreshes or redraws the open window when it receives a
file change notification.

Just in case, check the following registry value on your runtime
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer],"NoRemote
RecursiveEvents". The dword should not be set to "1". (the same check under
HKCU root). I'd even explicetely set it to "0".

Also, check if including "SMB Redirector" component in your image helps.

Yes, I was referring to the explorer window. The network connections only
refresh manually. Its a truly minor problem, but I was asked to
investigate.

The registry key does not exist. I'll see if creating them makes any
difference.

SMB Redirector is already included.
