Not that I can see - but you are relying on the behaviour of Explorer's SHChangeNotify handler, and I've no idea how that is implemented - but I wouldn't be surprised to find that an SHCNE_UPDATEDIR is *not* treated as a full refresh, even if that does leave the possibility that icons or other attributes will be slightly out of date - they will correct themselves after a refresh after all. In other words, just because the shell may collapse many SHCNE_UPDATEITEM calls into a single SHCNE_UPDATEDIR notification, there is no requirement that notification handlers treat SHCNE_UPDATEDIR as performing a complete SHCNE_UPDATEITEM for every item in the directory.
