I have sent you an email with a debug version of WinSCP to the address you have used to register on this forum.

Looks like I found the problem, if I have "Transfer on background by default" checked then the changes are not displayed, once I disabled it, I can see new uploaded files correctly.

I believe even if I choose to do transfer on background I still should see the new files without manually reloading the folder. Seems like a bug to me!?

You must have turned it off:

It is actually on, I even disabled "Cache visited remote directories" and "Cache directory changes", a bug probably?

That is not possible.


There should be a refresh of the remote directory if a new file has been created, but there isn't.

Or, maybe it could refresh every second?

That's possible.

Automaic refresh after changes in remote dir?

When there is a change (files created or moved or deleted) in the remote directory which is displayed in WinSCP, then this is not displayed in WinSCP. Only after pressing F5 I can see the changes. I press F5 something like a hundred times per day. Is it possible to somehow automate this, couldn't WinSCP update each time something happens in the remote directory? Or, maybe it could refresh every second?


P.S.: I work with WinSCP every day, it's just fantastic.
