Noob Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 This is very likely not what you are after, but I post it anyway (at least for your amusement). This is how this Noob would go about trying to refresh desktop icons: ControlSend("Program Manager", "", 1, "{F5}") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shevilie Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Have a look in some of the "hiddden folder" threads I think i saw something to refresh all the files...

Rick Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) ok, what i really meant was can i use the _SendMessage command to rebuild the icon cache? As I often find F5 doesnt refresh the image or text in comments of a shortcut if theyve changed. Edited February 22, 2007 by Rick Who needs puzzles when we have AutoIt!!
