Hi!

Thank you for your reply.

It was helpful, But I would like to resolve it without changing the setting on the client side.

Is there no solution on the server side?

Regards.

Hi,

I think not, but for the client side the solution could be as follows:

Open "Regedit" and find key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
Create next DWORD:
- FileInfoCacheLifetime = 0
- FileNotFoundCacheLifetime = 0
- DirectoryCacheLifetime = 0
Reinitiate Windows.

Regards,

Hi Gonzalez

Thank you for your advice.

I tried edit to registry on my client pc.

I tried edit the registry according to your advice and restarted.

but the file update date was not change.

Besides that, I also tried the following.

Open "Regedit" and find key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters
Create next DWORD:
- SMB2 = 0
Reinitiate Windows.

but the file update date was not change too.

thanks.

In my opinion is a Windows/explorer problem:

Other actions:

1. Registry Changes: In regedit go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BDEADE7F-C265-11D0-BCED-00A0C90AB50F}\Instance and change DontRefresh value to 0.

2. Sort by Name: In properties explorer use Sort by name.

Hi Gonzalez

Thank you for your repeated advice.

I tried edit to registry on my client pc(windows 7 sp1 32bits) and according to your repeated advice and restarted windows.

After windows started, it called data of cisf folder,

overwrite update, → no change

folder sorted by name → no change.

Open another folder and return to the original folder → The update date and time was change.

I found that the update date and time will change when updating to the latest information or referring to another folder and returning to the original.

But I want to make the update date and time change when updating on the application side.

Thanks Regards.

Surely that seems like a problem in windows network refresh.

I will check about window network setting pointed out by you.

Thanks.
