Admin Tip #59: Automate SCREEN Refresh

Hits: Failed to execute CGI : Win32 Error Code = 3


When you delete a file, create a new folder etc the screen does not update until you press F5 (for refresh) or close/open the folder. You can automate this

Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update
Name: UpdateMode
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0

This change is immediate and the next time you start Explorer the new auto update will be in effect.
