If you would have posted the code to change that setting, I would have tested it against the following suggestions before replying. Have you tried: 1) Removing the statement <code>if (itemName == "Windows Explorer")</code> from the above code, so it refreshes every window (including the desktop)? 2) Broadcasting a WM_SETTINGCHANGE via SendMessage WIN32 API? <pre><code>private const int HWND_BROADCAST = 0xffff; private const int WM_WININICHANGE = 0x001a, WM_SETTINGCHANGE = 0x001a, INI_INTL = 1; [DllImport("user32.dll")] private static extern int SendMessage(int hWnd, uint wMsg, uint wParam, uint lParam); SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_SETTINGCHANGE, 0, INI_INTL); </code></pre> <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/1052715/2529063">[Credit]</a> 3) IActiveDesktop.ApplyChanges <pre><code>[ComImport] [Guid("F490EB00-1240-11D1-9888-006097DEACF9")] [InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)] public interface IActiveDesktop { [PreserveSig] int ApplyChanges(AD_Apply dwFlags); // [...] // Note: There is a lot more to this interface, // please see PInvoke.net link below. } private const int AD_APPLY_REFRESH = 4; IActiveDesktop.ApplyChanges(AD_APPLY_REFRESH); </code></pre> <a href="http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/Interfaces/IActiveDesktop.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">[PInvoke.net - IActiveDesktop]</a> If these do not work, let me know. If it comes down to it, it is possible to save all the open explorer windows & their positions, terminate explorer, wait for explorer to restart, re-open each explorer window and re-position them... if that would acceptable. Hope this helps.

1. COThanks so much but unfortunately none of them worked for me. So I figured out I could hide desktop icons and then show them. That just does what I want and reloads the desktop.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
