Problem with connected network drives

Post by peterbonge »

When I'm deleting files or folders from connected network drives the files list and the tree view aren't refreshed. And sometimes folders can't be deleted because the program can't find them (said in the error message). I think the program tries to delete files or subfolders which are already deleted (refresh problem)...
With the Windows Explorer I don't have these problems...

I cannot reproduce this refresh problem. Does it happen everytime with all files and folders on connected network drives? Also with Move and Copy operations on/from/to connected network drives?

1. When I move a file to another folder with the mouse button all is OK.
2. When I paste a cutted or copied file I don't see it until refresh.
3. Dragging a file to a connected network drive is unimportant because I'll have to switch to the drive to see the result and this would of course cause a refresh.
4. Yes, it happens everytime.
5. The network drive is a file server (Samba).

EDIT:
6. When I open the file server via the network neighborhood it is the same. But when I open a shared folder of another PC via the network neighborhood all is fine...

Has this issue recently come up, or do you think it was always in TrackerV3?

I think it was always in TrackerV3. But at the beginning I didn't spent much attention to it.

Okay, I'm pretty sure I fixed it! You'll have it with next BETA delivery...

Thanks for reporting it.

The version 3.60.0084 doesn't fix this problem here...

Oh, that's too bad. I actually could reproduce it and then fix it. Maybe my solution does not work with all servers. I'll try again...

Since some time I again have a problem with my network drive. Normally it works fine, except deleting folders. Deleting files is no problem, but if I delete a folder nothing happens. The files within the folder will be deleted, but not the folder.

I'll try to pay attention to it :)

You mean the tree is not refreshed (but the folder is deleted)?

No. If I delete a file the file will be deleted and the file list will be refreshed. If I delete a folder nothing will be refreshed. After a manual refresh the folder is still there. Just the files within the folder are deleted.

Well, I have the same thing sometimes in Explorer, so I doubt if it's an XYplorer thing.
Software: should we be aware because it's soft ? I like to think not !

I never have it in XYplorer, so I as well doubt if it's an XYplorer thing. :wink:

Apart from XY's "Backup" functions (which use Kernel API) I use the SHFileOperation Shell32 API for all file operations. If the function fails I can't help it. The reason here might be some sharing violation, or a matter of rights in the network...?
