Bug : Trashcan not updated

Hi,

If I put the trashcan in a Fence (to keep the position after a RemoteDesktop login/logout), this icon is never updated until I press F5 (refresh desktop).

Please, a patch would be welcome.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. I can't reproduce your problem on my system. My recycle bin as far as I checked no problem. It update itself every time.

But there is a workaround mentioned by others as below. Taken from this link : https://forums.stardock.com/489653/ reply#17

I found a workaround to this issue: uncheck "Allow themes to change desktop icons" in the "Desktop Icon Settings" dialog of Windows 10 and everything works again as desired.

Try it and let us know.

Thank you,

I tested and yes it is solving the problem. But it is not instantly ; there is a delay.

It is not related to Fences, but something in Windows Explorer. If I remove the icon out of Fences, the problem is the same, I never noticed this before !!!8C

I suggest to do the "sfc /scannow" to see if there is some system files problem.

Please try the following:

-For Win8/10 Users: Open the Start Screen, and type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator' from below.

-For 7 Users: click Start, in the start search field type 'cmd'. Right-click on the search result and select 'Run as administrator'.

-Type: sfc /scannow

-Wait for the scan to complete (this can take several minutes)

If the SFC finds errors, but cannot fix them, please also run the following command in the same command prompt window:

dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

The above command should assist with replacing any damaged or problematic system files. Please note, however, since it may require restoring certain files, this process can take some time and you will need to be patient until it has completed.

 

Thank you,
