    Windows 7 Windows Explorer is not auto refreshing

    Not really! I have found that when I copy a file to the same drive it does not auto refresh (ie sort by whatever) BUT if you say copy from your C drive to an external drive, it does Auto Refresh. I suspect this is a bug in Windows 7 - as in Vista this did not happen. Best regards Steven

    Windows 7 Windows Security Center keeps on turning off!

    Thanks for the reply - however....I have already asked Security Center to ignore my Anti Virus software. It has said that it is 'not being monitored', but I'm baffled why the Security Center is being switched off on a reboot. (I have UAC on one notch above the bottom) Best Regards Steven
