View 1 RepliesForce A Refresh Of All Win Explorer Windows Showing A Particular Folder?
Feb 15, 2009The application I'm developing does some file management chores, such as renaming and deletion of files. I have noticed that often after a file is deleted via code, it is still shown in Windows Explorer although it doesn't exist anymore. A refresh (F5) solves this, however I wouldn't want end users to have to press F5 every couple of minutes when using the application.
Can a refresh of all open Windows Explorer windows be requested via code? Moreover, can the refresh be requested only for windows displaying a particular location? I've thought of getting all open windows, filtering them and then sending the F5 keystroke, however it sounds a bit like overkill. Any easier way to do it?
WIndows 7 Desktop Refresh And Picture Screensaver?
Nov 9, 2011I am using VB.net in VS2008.I wrote a screensaver that cycles through pictures. When the screensaver exits it sets the desktop background to the last picture loaded using API call SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER, 0, sFilePath, SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE Or SPIF_SENDWININICHANGE).The desktop wallpaper refreshes for WinXP and Vista but not Win7.In Win7, if I run the screensaver as an EXE then the desktop background changes when the program ends. If I run it as a screensaver I need click on the desktop and press F5 before the desktop shows the new desktop background (or click and drag with the mouse to show pieces of the new desktop background).I have tried to add delays and even force a refresh by using SHChangeNotify(SHCNE_ASSOCCHANGED, SHCNF_IDLIST, Nothing, Nothing) but with no success.

Sep 5, 2011Some of u already know I'm making a 'virtual desktop'- thing.Only one problem. When switching to a new desktop it starts a new instance of my app in that desktop (works) and on the form load event it says process.start("explorer.exe") <- here is the problem. It only shows a window not the actually bar.Also this may be important it shows the window, but when I navigate to explorer.exe 'C:Windowsexplorer.exe' and open it there. The explorer bar does show up.

Creating A File Explorer Similar To Windows Explorer?
Aug 1, 2010I want to make a program that is similar to Windows Explorer. It will have a button that when you click it it opens a FolderBrowserDialog and it will have an area that displays the contents of the selected folder. I want to have a label that displays the current folder path (i.e. 'USERDocuments...') and I also would like a feature to search all files on the computer.Also, is it possible that when I click on a file in the contents of the selected folder it displays its information (i.e. Name, Size, etc.)? And can I also make it so that if you double click on another folder in the current folder's display it opens that folder? And can I have a button to go up one directory?

Feb 14, 2011I have a logon script which changes the desktop brackground picture in the registry. The only problem is this change isn't applied until the user logs off and on again. I currently use a small program which uses SHChangeNotify(&H8000000, &H1000, 0, 0) but this will not refresh the wallpaper. I was also hoping this would refresh the Taskbar because I change a registry setting which removes a toolbar.
