I tried that now, until I had copies of the file named copy (1) ut to copy (100) - they all showed up. I was using WatchDirs=3 as you did. I tried Ctrl+V - wait until file appears, then again Ctrl+V, and also olding down Ctrl and pressing 'v' many times.
There is just one thing I noticed: When you hold down Ctrl and press 'v' many times, and you release Ctrl before all files are copied, TC will show the quick search dialog. The list will then be refreshed only when you close that dialog with ESC.

I have made many tests on Windows 7 RTM now, both with WatchDirs=0 and WatchDirs=3. TC always refreshed the file list after Ctrl+V, the new files always showed up. I really don't know what I do differently.

The same here. Not immediately, but TC refreshes the panel.MVV wrote:I'm using Windows 7 RTM. And, as I said, WatchDirs=3 works fine for me.Samuel wrote:Do you use Win 7 for tests.
Here both doesnt work. (Watchdirs=0 and Watchdirs=3)
IMHO notable. It is not normal. It must be there, at least for > 100 MB files. Do you use any "Windows tweakers" on you system? My one is mor like a virgin.Samuel wrote:BTW: I never get a copy dialog.

I noticed something new.
1) Both panels in TC show the same folder
2) I copy some file from desktop to TC via ctrl+c/v but the file doesnt show up like described in this thread.
3) Then I manually refresh by pressing Ctrl+r.
-> Only the current panel is refreshed. The other panel is not refreshed, although the same folder is shown.
2Postkutscher:
140 MB doesnt show it. But it shows for 500MB where the refresh does work ok.
I use no windows tweaker either. Also I tried to remove all running processes like FreePDF Printer, Mouse driver, Sound driver, my AHK scripts. The bug still "works". Also tried to disable Aero because of the other win7 bug. (Thumbnail view cursor bug - could have been related...)
The only thing is that I customized many things manually by using the control panel.
2Christian:
Thank you for all your tests. Would it help if I do a video of this?
Thanks for all your time so far.

I just successfully reproduced it in my virtual Windows 7 machine on XP. (state immediately after install of win7 and tc - watchdirs=0/3 tested both)
Here is a video I made of the reproduce progress. (Here I use mouse only)
In the second video I use keyboard shortcuts only.
