Title: Sims 3 Folder Files Don't refresh upon Deletion Post by: kissing_toast on 2012 December 16, 01:47:01 OK, I'm only asking this here because this only happens in my Sims 3 My Documents folder. When I delete something, a cache file for example, it only gets removed if I refresh the folder. I can only find articles from when Windows 7 first cam out that pertains to all folders and files. This has only just started happening and it's driving me insane! Does anyone have a clue?

I hit F5 and it rights itself. I didn't know it was an issue, it happens only rarely, I put it down to my SSD being too fast for Windoze.

It technically does get deleted because if you try to delete the file again before refreshing, the system will say it no longer exists. If you search google with the keywords "windows 7 library refresh delete," you'll see the complaints about it.

Actually, the point of this post is to say that my hard drive is not SSD and I also have windows 7 64bit, so I don't think it's related to the SSD, as witch suspects.

My primary is SSD but I keep most files and downloads on a secondary drive. I know for a fact that deletions from the secondary drive do no always show up unless the screen is refreshed. I have no specific memory of similar occurences on my primary drive.
