• Windows 7 does not refresh the folder views

  I have the following problem:
  Windows 7 does not automatically refresh the folder view (until I have updated manually by pressing F5) after the following file operations:
  Create/delete/rename/move files or folders

  Final version of Windows 7 Professional, international English version. No upgrade, clean installation.

  It seems to me that it is a delay in my case: if I wait about 30 seconds, the updating is done automatically. There are shared folders on volume.

  I made the following points:
  -removed IconCache - did not help
  -Reset - folder views did not help
  -off to the discovery network and file sharing - did not help
  -Made a clean boot - did not help
  -a ran sfc - not found any violation
  -new user created account - did not help
  -updated the BIOS with the latest version - did not help
  -updated the VGA driver to the latest version - did not help
  -disabled the indexing of files - did not help
  -run Windows 7 Mode safe mode (without network): it seems that the problem does not occur

  I could be satisfied with Windows 7, but this question is terribly boring cause I work with a large number of files per day.

  Could someone help me?

  I had the same problem recently.  Here's what I discovered, FWIW:

  • After reading all of the above, it seems that, at the base, this is related to the shell of the user of Windows interface and how he tries to 'reach out' to other systems.  Fixes disable the Windows Client, disabling home groups, disable sharing of files, etc.
  • I discovered that I have the problem that in some folders.  For example, if I try to create a folder in the my DOCUMENTS folder, the problem occurs, but if I create the folder in a random folder on drive C: (e.g.. C:\MyTest), no problem!
  • I discovered that the folder appears finally - it takes 30 seconds. By pressing F5, I was "rush" of the process.  It also sounds like a kind of thing network client timeout.

  I wanted to start with the easiest, lowest impact.  It worked:

  • I opened the COMPUTER and removed a "network connection" that pointed to a server that is not currently available.

  That solved the problem completely.

• Is remember each folder view settings feature for a party?

  Everyone remember of this Windows XP. You goto my computer/Tools/Folder Options.../View and there was formerly a check the box for "remember each folder view settings.

  It will be built into Windows 7, any time soon?

  The main reason why I love him is that I want my file music to open always as simply as possible, with a simple list of bands so it ends up being a really thin long window... It works pretty well. Windows 7 has completely lost the ability to do. I really want to have to use a 3rd party application... Please tell me it's be worked on... anyone?

  Hello

  I've been looking for a solution for about 2 weeks and nothing has worked until now!

  Last night, I think that I have found a workaround.  If you would like your records to maintain its display settings, then you records SHALL NOT USE THE LIBRARY to see!  the reason for this is because libraries allow you to access and mix and match the elements of one or more files quickly without moving them from their original location. Libraries themselves don't store your files or folders. Instead, they point to different locations on a hard drive or an external hard drive connected to your computer.

  So, now that we have now that we can try to work around this problem I did and works very well for me.

  1. go to start - and click on your user name which is completely on the right corner.
  2. go in Tools - folder options - General tab must be low and click on 'show all files '.
  3. now you will see your "Username" folder appear under "library".   If you expand this (user name) folder, you will see your documents folders and folders of photos, music etc folders.
  4. open any folder you want, and customizes the view as desired. You can make this record at all! and it will keep its display settings.

  It's worked for me!   I DO NOT USE RECORDS UNDER LIBRARY BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT KEEP THE SETTINGS OUT THERE! SO I SIMPLY CLOSE THE LIBRARY AND KEEP ONLY EXPANDED MY USERNAME AND ALL THE FILES IT CONTAINS.

  I HOPE THIS HELPS... PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF IT WORKED AND IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER BEST WAY TO HELP.

• Windows 7 won't remember the last used file path

  So to this question, take the Gmail.  If you enter an email and want to attach a file, you click on join and Win 7 by default on the desktop, from which you access the folder you need.  It's very good... for the first time.  However, while she is supposed to be smart enough to be REMEMBER this location next time.  NOPE.  Win 7 keeps by default on the desktop, even if you attach a file and then IMMEDIATELY try to attach to another.

  Is there a solution for this?

  * original title - Windows 7 won't remember the last used file path.  Very frustrating *.

  It is not a particular problem with Windows 7, but the Internet browser.   We remember is no longer default path of Internet Explorer with the introduction of sandboxing Protected Mode.  Even Windows XP, using the results of this sandbox layout in this behavior.

  Your temporary solution is to use another browser, such as Google Chrome.  In the meantime, your comments that you want to have the ability to remember the last folder used in the browser is important in the future development of the browser.  Leave your comments here, please: https://connect.microsoft.com/site/sitehome.aspx?SiteID=136

  I think that it is perhaps a matter of definition of the operating system file association.

• How to keep the folder views in Windows?

  Original title: folder settings (options?) return that think Vista is 'practice '.

  I have this desktop of Vista (Dell vostro 1700) for 3 years now, and he gave me no trouble so far. Vista doesn't remember my settings in Office 2003, for example. Really hard with my (working) translation software, often using MS Word.

  But my problem now is: before I had an accident, it would return the views of my folders to tile all the time. No matter how many times I changed the settings to 'details' and to apply this setting to all folders every time I put my computer back on or open another folder, it would be again in "tiles". It's boring, I can't find something of a bitch in "tiles", and it's especially annoying because I told the computer to hundreds of times how I want to see my work, and she always returns to his favorite all time settings.  Now I have a new hard drive installed, want to use this computer as my mainframe for work and leisure, because my office is really slow, old and worn out (2003), and I want to go abroad for a long time and must be able to rely on it, particularly when it 'does what I want it to"it is.

  What is needed for Windows Vista to finally remember my settings and obey my orders?

  Using Safari Version 9.0.3 in Yosemite.  Safari NEVER remember the size of the window that I put it to the previous use. Does anyone know how to make Safari window resize the stick?

  Thank you!

  May be a corrupt .plist.

  Make a backup, preferably 2 backups on 2 separate drives.

  Go to Finder and select your user folder. With this Finder window as the windshield, select Finder/display/display options for presenting or order - J.  When the display options opens, check "show the library folder.

• change the folder view to alphabetical to chronological windows Explorer

  I want to change this chronological order of watching one of the subfolders in alphabetical.

  Exp: Under my pictures folder, I have subfolders by year (i.e. 2006, 2007, 2008, etc.) who orgaize in chronological order but the subfolders of those subfolders are the months of the year and they are the list alphabetically - even if I spent a year at the front or at the end of the name of the month (so it still lists like this (: October 2006, September 2006)

  I want to know if there is a way to get the subfolders to list as a calendar discovering putting an order number or letter before the month month.

  Thank you

  MOM of Godzilla

  You want cannot be done because it recognizes the names like alpha-numeric characters and sorts alphabetically (just as it does for years - but this market because they are numbers).  Try to use a designation number instead of the alphabetical name of the month - 8-2006 to August 2006 and so on.

  If it is possible (and I don't), the answer is maybe in one of these articles (especially the sort order on one) - but probably you'll learn from them that's not possible because you have things to put in place:

  Here's how to change the default template for a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets the folder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show how to reset the display settings for the Windows File Explorer, disable Automatic folder Type Discovery (which is I think what you want)and increase the folder display the cache to make Vista do not forget the display settings, the folder type template, the size or the position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

  It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with, open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the good File menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free program http://autosizer.en.softonic.com/ to resize them.

  Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

  Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

• Windows 8 doesn't remember size and position of the previously open programs

  I hope that if there is no solution for this problem, at least it can be taken as feedback on the next update of WIndows 8.

  The question is:

  I use Windows 7 and WIndows 8 at home to work.

  Now, Windows 7 remembers the size and position of all my previously opened programs (I mean by "programs": EXCEL, INTERNET EXPLORER, FILES, WINDOWS MAIL, WORD, POWERPOINT and others), so that when opens again, they open in the same place and size that they were finally on the closure.

  So I can arrange some programs to occupy some space on the desktop, and each time that I open them they will open in the same place.

  However, WIndows 8 does NOT. When you use the desktop computer in Windows 8 even after organizing the progams to where I like them every time, the next time I open them they will NOT open in the same place or size.

  Or sometimes it does, but only once, but then not do the next time.

  In any case, it is so NOT intuitive and it is a huge concern to be their resizing each time.

  Anyone know WHY? and more importantly if there is a solution? or, where and how can I let Microsoft have this feedback so that the Windows 8.1 update can include a fix for this?

  Additional data:

  System: Windows 8 64-bit (w/Panel touchscreen desktop PC)
  I use my taskbar on the top of the screen in my Windows 7 and Windows 8 PCs.

  Thank you!!

  Hello

  Resize the window of Windows Explorer how you want and then close.

  Next time, when you open the Windows Explorer window, you should remember that the windows of size when it was closed the last time.

  If this isn't the case, then this problem occurs because the registry to the folder options settings are incorrect.

  Note: Serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  (a) delete the following registry subkeys:

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

  D
  elete the following registry subkeys:

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

  (b) Re-create the following registry subkeys:

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

  Re-create the following registry subkeys:

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags

  o HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU

  (c) create and then set the registry BagMRU Size value to 5000 in the registry subkeys you created in step b.

• Helps the folder view

  In windows, when I had photos in another file in my folder of other documents had a picture of the content so could sweep more files without having to open them all to see what was in them.  Vista doesn't seem to have this option so feel to open all folders to see what's in them.  Is it possible to have the files as if they were in windows prior to vista?

  Thank you

  What you want is in Vista.  You can make some changes views and sorting and formatting and such but only in a comprehensive manner, based on the type of folder (and the type of change, are you a request).  Even if this is not enough to your desire, I included it as it is, and maybe you can use it to perform a similar operation that will work given the limitations that you need to work with:

  Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disableAutomatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

  It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFilemenu bar item.

• Windows Explorer expands inappropriate files, the folder that develop you to the bottom of the jump navigation pane

  When you use a left-hand Navigation pane, if there is enough of folders in the navigation pane as you have a vertical scroll bar, if you click on a folder with the mouse (to see supported in the right pane), and then expand the folder (either by clicking on the symbol + or with the arrow key) , then the left pane automatically scrolls upward as far as possible such as the folder you expanded is yet in sight at the bottom of the pane. This command deletes the folder under the mouse, where it should stay.

  This is certainly a bug, as it only happens the first time you try to extend a record of the way. After having done it once, you can scroll the navigation (left) pane so that the file in question is back in the middle of the pane, and it will expand and contract as expected, remaining under the mouse.

  Because many people seem interested in this question, I'll post some info about my recent contact with Microsoft about this issue.

  It seems that everywhere where this issue has been spoken, all someone would get to a Microsoft employee was a response to "Thank you for your comments" mat. Never the validity of the issue has been discussed or even acknowledged. I decided to write an e-mail to the responsible man, Steve Ballmer, clearly the problem with links to a procedure step by step problem, this discussion and report bug with 220 votes (at the time). I realized that Steve would never read himself, but I thought that his email should get automatically transferred to a person who can actually read.
  Two days later I received an email from a specialist in defense of Microsoft saying a "case of grace" was created and the escalation of Windows team should get in touch with me. The next day, an engineer of the climbing sent ask when would be the right time to talk about issues on the phone. So it would be quite clear with what I was talking about, I've recorded a screencast walking through that was precisely the problem.
  Edit: I made a video more condensed showing the "record jump bug", see here.
  This has resulted in our discussions:
  1. engineers are aware of this problem.
  2. they may, or may not provide a fix for it.
  Nothing revolutionary, but it's a little more push in the right direction. In my opinion, post in this thread on the problem has practically no value. I suggest you:
  1 vote upward and commenting on the bug here:
  http://connect.Microsoft.com/WindowsServerFeedback/feedback/details/621426/bug-when-expanding-folders-in-Explorer-Server-2008-R2-and-Windows-7
  He said that the site is being monitored by the dev team.
  2. writing intelligent and without rudeness complaints that mention how the bug affects negatively your workflow file management every day. Send these to the top of the food chain of Microsoft until you get an answer. You are a paying customer and you deserve to be heard.
  I'm tired of dealing with him, so now use XYplorer when you perform heavy file management. It stings to have to pay for a decent file manager, but that's life. If this question bothers you at all, please comment and vote on the bugand write an email.
  13/09/11 PATCH: Bug is still present in Windows 8 Developer Preview, see here.
  01/30/12 UPDATE: Finally, we have a public recognition that this is actually a bug that needs to be addressed, and it will be apparently fixed in Windows 8 beta coming. It's good news, but I know I'll use Win7 for at least a year or two, as will be much, much more. We deserve a patch for this problem in Win7. Until that happens, keep Microsoft listening to this topic.
  FINAL THOUGHTS: It is a real bug with 645
  ! votes on their feedback page, however MS didn't intend to fix for Windows 7 users. The bug is fixed in Windows 8, which means nothing to many of us who do not intend to upgrade. If this bug really gets under the skin, I suggest to install the classic interface, which has been recommended several times in this thread. You can choose to install only the feature "Classic Explorer" which corrects this bug among others and even remember the old UI for copy of file which is so nice to have in return. I used it for many months now without worries.
  In addition, for those of you who think that they find a solution to this problem by changing just a few parameters options somewhere... Thank you for your desire to help each of us, but you do not have the same problem and please do not post here your 'solution '. If you read some of the 29 pages of this thread, you will see that all the imaginable solutions has been suggested. There is a bug in the browser itself. If you are using Windows 7 and plan to continue using it, your options are 1) use the classic interface, or 2) use a third-party files, such as XYplorermanagement tool. If you stumble across this thread because you noticed this bug, please vote for the bugand make 1 or 2.
