File rename not appearing until F5 refresh


Recommended Posts

Guest Brian Cryer
Posted

We have a small office in which we have project files shared from a Windows

2003 standard server. One of our users (xp pro, sp2) has the problem where

she can create a new folder or rename a file/folder in this share using

windows explorer but windows explorer doesn't then show the change unless

she hits F5 (refresh). No-one else has this problem.

 

I don't see anything untoward in the event logs of either her pc or the

server. Whilst I don't see anything to indicate a need, I will be scheduling

a disk check tonight just in case it helps.

 

Any ideas?

 

TIA.

Thanks Anthony,

 

the KB article doesn't mention the problem with renaming, but it is the

closest thing I've yet seen. I've requested the hot-fix from Microsoft, and

will see if it fixes the problem.

Hi Brian,

You can easily test this one by changing the sharing (mapped or network

places)

"This problem may occur if the shared network folder is mapped to a folder

inside a shared folder.". This could explain why one person has a problem

and others don't, and could be fixed without a hotfix,

Re: File rename not appearing until F5 refresh

 

To be quite honest I'm not sure what Microsoft mean by a "shared network

folder is mapped to a folder inside a shared folder". In this case the share

on the network server is to a folder straight of one of the drives, and on

the client the share is mapped directly.

 

Whilst the symptoms described are similar I don't see a problem trying the

hotfix - I now have it from Microsoft so will try it shortly.

Anthony, it looks like you were right. The lady who was having the problem

no longer has the problem.

 

Thank you.

Re: File rename not appearing until F5 refresh

 

Sorry if there was any ambiguity in my previous reply: Yes, the hotfix

mentioned in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873392/en-us has solved the

problem of file and folder rename/delete/create not appearing until F5 was

pressed.
