No Auto Refresh

Post by phred »

Using 25.90.0111 on Win10.

I'm fairly certain this is not a bug as the forum would be flooded with reports.

I use a screen capture program (ShareX) that automatically saves the capture file to D:\TempStuff, which is a locked tab. Previously the file would appear immediately after saving (assuming the locked tab had focus.) Recently I've noticed that the file does not appear on the locked tab. Pressing F5 does not make the file appear. If I navigate away from the locked tab, either to another tab or another directory in the tree and then go back to the locked tab, the file appears. MOST of the time. Sometimes it doesn't. I can force open another occurrence of the same directory and the file is there. Closing the new tab and going back to the locked tab usually shows the file.

I have completely exited XY and restarted it. I have rebooted Windows. I have rolled back to 25.90 and then to 25.80. The behavior remains the same.

I suppose it's possible I inadvertently changed a config setting, but I reviewed all the "refresh" settings and nothing jumps out at me as being incorrect.

Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks.

hi! i can't offer much except see if this issue occurs in fresh; as well. this would definitely rule out any user-made setting changes and could help to start to narrow down the issue.

Grrr. I should've done a "fresh" version. I know better but simply forgot. Thanks.

With a fresh version it worked as expected. Leaving the fresh version open, I tired again watching the locked tab and it also worked as expected. Closing the fresh version and trying again, it's still working as expected. Closed the regular version and restarted and it's still working.

I'll have to keep watching this and will report back if it starts up again.
