Network attached drivers are not updated #60

Closed 1andro1 closed 8 months ago

Hello,

in case a folder in a network attached driver is open in the Explorer, the changes in folders (renaming of a file, creation of new file, deletion of a file...) are not actualized in the Explorer. A person must enter in the folder and make manual refresh. I am using the program in content layout. When the folder is in a local drive everything is ok.

Best Regards, Adriyan

Thanks for the info. This is a limitation of FileSystemWatcher, the class responsible for change tracking. It somehow loses the connection and stops sending file/directory change events. I will add a recurrent connection refresh feature to fix this issue.
