Ok, so easy to do but I guess I just incorporate that into my FSW monitoring
service.

Subject: Refresh Windows Explorer in code

 

Is there a (code) way to refresh a user's view of a folder in Windows
Explorer? This seems to be a long-term problem in the Explorer UI (? Maybe
just Windows 7 - I'm not sure), requiring the user to press F5 many times
over the day even though files are continually changed in a particular
folder, while (in code) a FileSystemWatcher doesn't seem to have the same
problem. 

I would like the users to have a view of the folder that is up-to-date.
Otherwise, it's confusing and generates time-wasting support responses.
