Today I found an annoying Bug in Windows 7 (Win7 Professional x86).
When a user try to Create / Delete/ Move any file from the Desktop, it still shows at desktop and when the user press F5 , it instantly appears/disappears, seems like windows Explorer auto refresh not working properly.
This resolved the issue for me:
Go to
Tools / Folder Options / General Tab,
and at the bottom, in the ‘Navigation Pane‘, make sure ‘Show all folders‘ and ‘Automatically expand to current folder‘ are checked.
As showed in the image below . . .
.
Another alternate method contributed by user…
Open explorer –> right click on Documents –> in the documents library pane click the Restore Defaults button –> click Apply

This fix seems to have worked for me. Thank you very much!

Tried almost every suggestion on the net,but nothing helped solving my specific problem.
After spending several hours myself this fixed it for me:
Open explorer –> right click on Documents –> in the documents library pane click the Restore Defaults button –> click Apply
Problem solved 🙂

No. none worked.
But open task manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL), in Process tab right+click explorer.exe and terminate. Now choose File > run write explorer or explorer.exe. Et voilá! Working.
