Hello
In my code I create a folder on the desktop or any other folder
location.
Unless I press F5 while the Desktop or the Explorer containing the
created folder has the focus this new folder will not show up.
Is there a solution to do a refresh programatically?
I tried
AppActivate("Desktop")
SendKeys.Send("{F5}")
The problem seems to get the right explorer.
Thank you for any help in advance.
Regards
Manfred
