This setting allows you to enable or disable automatic folder refresh immediately. You do not have to modify &cfgsys; or restart the system for this setting to take effect.

If the setting is enabled, all folders on the system will automatically pick up changes in the file system after a short delay. For example, if an application creates a file in a folder that is currently open, the file will appear in that folder automatically.

If the setting is disabled, such changes are not recognized by the Workplace Shell. To have such changes displayed in open folders, you will have to select the "Refresh now" menu item for the folder.

Note that this will only work if you have enabled &xwp;'s replacement of the automatic folder auto-refresh in the "&xwp; Setup" object and have restarted the WPS after enabling that setting.

This item is disabled if the replacement auto-refresh has not been enabled, or if you haven't restarted the WPS after enabling the replacement yet.
