Auto refresh bug...

[ghost zero]

Auto refresh is not working for the recycle bin when restoring large files. Tested with a 3.5 GB file.

Windows 7 x64
XY 17.90.0100

EDIT: Tested with a small file [~50 MB] and it still happens.

Thanks, but I cannot fix this for Win7. Auto refresh messaging in Windows changes with every release. This is probably fixed in Win8 or Win10.

[ghost zero]

so are you just going to leave auto refresh broken for users on win7--even though the vast majority of users are still on win7?

[admin]

Well, let's debug it:

First do

Code: Select all

::logchange 5;

, then perform your restoring from bin action, then do

Code: Select all

::text get("debuglog");

, then post the log it here.

My query is unrelated to the OP but the topic sort of matched so I hope it's ok I reused this topic.

The issue I am having is that I have an old slow NAS drive so when I copy files from it to my local computer I need to disable auto-refresh so that I can continue working on files in the destination folder while the backgrounded custom copy tasks run, but auto-refresh doesn't seem to switch off entirely because after a file is finished copying it keeps jumping up and down in the list to the newly finished copying file even while I have auto refresh disabled or suspended.

Should disabling auto-refresh in my use case stop refreshes caused by custom copy or does disabling auto-refresh only stop refreshes caused by other events?

I should add that I tried the logchange suggested in the above post but there is nothing in it that is related.

Win10 x64 - XY 18.60.0008

Indeed, you are right. Please check if it's better in the next beta.

Works great, thanks so much! sorry to hassle you.

[admin]

Well, I thank you! Another step towards perfection...

I am so confused. I installed 18.60.0011 and auto-refresh seems broken. I noticed Suspend Auto-Refresh is checked (I have never used that option). I clicked off "Suspend Auto-Refresh" and saved all options, but when I restart XYP, Suspend is clicked on. Is there a configuration setting for this?

I'm hesitant to bring this up, but I'll just make you aware and let you decide if you think anything needs changing (or changing back ). When browsing a network drive it suspends auto refresh automatically (great feature) now you have made this change when a file is deleted the list doesn't update to remove files, I think in the case or a deletion it might be better to have it still update the list automatically because a deletion is instant and not queued.

Still testing....

I hope I haven't opened a can of worms here because I notice now that when you copy/move a file on a network drive you do expect the list to update even with auto-refresh suspended, that is probably the reason you had it like it was initially.

The little fix I made cannot be the cause of this.

Note that "Suspend Auto-Refresh" is auto-enabled in search results lists. Maybe that explains it.

Thanks Don, but how do I turn it off? When I start XYP, the option is ticked. Do I have to Ctrl+R each time I start XYP to turn it off? I don't understand why this option is ticked when I don't want it.

I downgraded to 18.60 and the Suspend option is ticked every time I start XYP. This explains my constant use of F4 and F5.

Hmm, can't explain that ATM. What's your startup path?

But in the meantime I found and fixed another bug related to this:

Code: Select all

    ! Auto-Refresh: Auto-Refresh is auto-suspended while a deletion is going on 
      since v13.60.0011 - 2014-01-15 14:42. But since 20170914 the suspended 
      state was not undone anymore afterwards. Fixed.

The startup path is a folder on my E drive - it has been that for a long time.

I tried "::fresh;" with 18.60.0011 and View|Suspend Auto-Refresh is ticked on.

On which path? This PC? That's normal.
