Whenever I create a new folder or file on the Desktop or within Windows
Explorer, I will not see it unless I manually press F5 key to refresh
the screen. This also happens when I want to rename, move, or delete a
file or folder. I will not see any changes unless I press the F5 key again.
What I want is to have the automatic refresh back whenever I add,
rename, move, or delete something in the Desktop and Windows Explorer.
Or, in other words, undo whatever has done this.
Thanks in advance.

Since I do not know which one to trust, I will have to ignore the
software solution that was presented to me and might have been able to
help my situation. I will also be forced to ignore both of these posters
from this point forward unless there are others that can provide proof
of who is right. Apologies in advance to the person who is right.
It's unfortunate for me and for the person that could be possibly
telling me the truth. For the time being, I will still consider my
problem unresolved and hoping for further responses.

Except the site is only populated with many faked posts and doesn't
reflect the real view people in the community have of you - see my sig.
No, I never got an answer.
I did post at couple of other places,
but no helpful answers.
I finally figured out how to take care
it on my own, but it was a last resort
measure.
I found out the other accounts on my
computer didn't have the same problem, so
what I did was create myself another account
on my machine. I transferred my documents,
email, links, and other important files to
my new account. When I felt that I had
everything from my old account, I deleted it.
I then changed my user name in my new account
to the same one that I used in my old one.
Evidently I had a corrupt or a bad setting
of some sort in my registry. Technically,
I didn't fix it. I just deleted it.

I suspect my 15 month old managed to change this setting by mashing on
my keyboard.
This post had the solution:

Just download the patch from Microsoft and restart.

6 months after the last posting which was added long after the original
post...?
A conversation that started two years ago?
OH! techarena... The leech site strikes again.

Maybe review the actual newsgroup posting in its entirety and proper order:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support/browse_frm/thread/c0c79d62e2176ab1
Even has a web page link that directs you to the part of the conversation
you are asking about and answers your question pretty clearly.
