SOLVED - windows xp rename folder within shared folder, not refreshing
window

problem was I tried to rename a folder and it didn't seem to do
anything. Turned out it was, but the screen wasn't refreshing
automatically. I had to do it manually F5.
And it applies only to a particular shared folder.

The well known Shared Documents one.
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\

I could access it remotely..

The solution was to right click , go to Sharing and Security.
You have that area that says
"Share thus folder on the network"
"Allow network users to change my files"
Share Name _______________

I had both unticked and no share name..
I actually wanted both ticked anyway.. So I did and entered the share
name and it's fine now. That solved it.

I didn't bother to narrow it down, to find which box or if it was no
share name, that caused the problem.
But since I could read the files.. It may be that it was the box about
"change my files" was unticked.. Though I could modify files I think..
It's fine now anyway. With that solution.

The problem may apply to any shared folder and not just a folder
within it.. or maybe just shared documents.. I didin't check.


----------------------------
slightly pointless elaboration..
I had what appeared to be a problem of not being able to rename a
file.. It just went back to what it was, never changing. But with a
command prompt open and renaming it from there. I saw the renaming was
having an effect. And DIR showed that renaming in a window was having
an effect. A google along the lines of cannot rename file windows xp ,
got it down to shared folder.. I then found the/a solution.

There is also something here about changing a registry stting to get
it to refresh automatically. But this was already set for me anyway

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Update
Set the value name "UpdateMode" to 1

It was already 1 . So that wasn't it.
