Not Refreshing to See Any Changes

Hi, this started a few weeks ago and has been quite problematic. I wasn't aware of changing any settings/preferences when this started.

The viewers do not automatically refresh to view any changes as you'd expect.

Examples of the problem:

  1. I edit a file or folder name. It doesn't show the correct (newly updated) name of the folder unless I press F5 to refresh the view.
  2. I have an Opus window observing my downloads folder. A new file is downloaded there, yet it won't show in Opus unless I press F5.

Please let me know how this can be fixed. Thank you!

Is it working in File Explorer if you do the same thing with it watching the folder?

What kind of drive is involved? Local drives? Network drives? A NAS (Windows or something else)?

Make sure the whole Opus process wasn't launched elevated, as that can block notifications reaching it: Why NOT to run Opus as Administrator under UAC
