File rename not appearing until F5 refresh

We have a small office in which we have project files shared from a Windows
2003 standard server. One of our users (xp pro, sp2) has the problem where
she can create a new folder or rename a file/folder in this share using
windows explorer but windows explorer doesn't then show the change unless
she hits F5 (refresh). No-one else has this problem.

I don't see anything untoward in the event logs of either her pc or the
server. Whilst I don't see anything to indicate a need, I will be scheduling
a disk check tonight just in case it helps.

Any ideas?

TIA.

Thanks Anthony,

the KB article doesn't mention the problem with renaming, but it is the
closest thing I've yet seen. I've requested the hot-fix from Microsoft, and
will see if it fixes the problem.

Hi Brian,
You can easily test this one by changing the sharing (mapped or network
places)
"This problem may occur if the shared network folder is mapped to a folder
inside a shared folder.". This could explain why one person has a problem
and others don't, and could be fixed without a hotfix,

To be quite honest I'm not sure what Microsoft mean by a "shared network
folder is mapped to a folder inside a shared folder". In this case the share
on the network server is to a folder straight of one of the drives, and on
the client the share is mapped directly.

Whilst the symptoms described are similar I don't see a problem trying the
hotfix - I now have it from Microsoft so will try it shortly.

Anthony, it looks like you were right. The lady who was having the problem
no longer has the problem.

Thank you.

Sorry if there was any ambiguity in my previous reply: Yes, the hotfix
mentioned in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873392/en-us has solved the
problem of file and folder rename/delete/create not appearing until F5 was
pressed.
