    Windows XP Cannot Refresh Automatically

    Hello,

    I have been facing this problem for some time, if I for example, In Windows explorer save some files from firefox or internet explorer , then the folder is created but it does not appear to visible , only after refreshing the current windows the a new file would like to be visible. The same occurs if I have to create or rename newly created folder it appears only after refreshing.
    Has anyone any idea what's wrong. ?

    Thanks the help.

    Hello,I have the solution here .these problem is related with Automatic Window Refresh

    1. Click on Start/ Slect Run/Type Regedit
    2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update.
    3. Value Name: UpdateMode, Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value), Value Data: default = 1.
    4. Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, named "UpdateMode" and set it to equal "0" for faster updates. Restart Windows for the change to take effect.
