Re: OT: Windows 7 operating systems, Windows Explorer failing to display files
Did you refresh the display for the directory? That has always fixed those problems for me.

OT: Windows 7 operating systems, Windows Explorer failing to display files
I had that for a while. You forgot to mention whether you have a 64-bit computer. I think the problem by me was when I transferred a file using a 32-bit program. Windows Explorer, which I assume is 64-bit on a 64-bit OS, didn't always display the file. I haven't noticed in a while, so maybe a Windows update took care of it.

RE: OT: Windows 7 operating systems, Windows Explorer failing to display files
2012-08-27-01T19:25Z Penelope, thanks for the further refinement. For me, closing and reopening Windows Explorer has had no effect.

I had that for a while. You forgot to mention whether you have a 64-bit computer. I think the problem by me was when I transferred a file using a 32-bit program. Windows Explorer, which I assume is 64-bit on a 64-bit OS, didn't always display the file. I haven't noticed in a while, so maybe a Windows update took care of it.

OT: Windows 7 operating systems, Windows Explorer failing to display files
Did you refresh the display for the directory? That has always fixed those problems for me.
