File Explorer deletion bug still unfixed
Difficult to believe Microsoft hasn't fixed the bug that causes File
Explorer to lose focus after a delete operation. But seriously, that one is so obvious, surely they know about it. |

The branding requirements would normally reject stamping the file with "Thunderbird" and using some other name instead. Just as off-brand Firefox is "IceWeasel" or similar. It would not be "legal" for a third party to place Thunderbird branding on it -- this can be reinforced as a trademark violation if necessary. https://www.ghacks.net/2019/06/04/th...-who-needs-it/ There's a good chance that's a Win32 style application with that user agent. A Metro version would likely have a different user agent than that. Since user agents can be spoofed, you also don't really know what that is. ******* As for your initial report, do you use extensive ShellEx on your install ? Maybe the problem is related to something you've plugged into Explorer, and others aren't seeing the exact same symptoms. Explorer does have problems. It has problems handling a file folder with 50000-60000 or so files. And File Explorer can be rendered "railed" if presented with a folder with only a million files. It will consume 15GB of RAM, and just sit there with the spinning icon. Whereas if you "dir" the same folder in a Command Prompt window, the computer seemingly does the impossible. It can read and sort a 40GB $MFT in only 22 seconds or so. Which is almost FTL as software goes. It's able to read stuff from memory, at around 2GB per second, which isn't something you see every day. But Explorer on the other hand, doesn't scale well at all. It could, but it doesn't. Paul |

It was a bug, for months if not years. I posted about it multiple times. It appears to be fixed. I might have been mistaken earlier today when the file manager appeared to lose focus after deleting a file. It wasn't something on my system. I've never heard of unintentionally causing a program to lose focus. Windows has always protected focus. There are rare exceptions, but properly functioning legitimate programs do not steal focus. Changing focus is for the user to decide, for the obvious reason. Even the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) function to programmatically switch windows requires a simple trick to work properly. Unintentional programmatic switching of windows doesn't happen unless you are using a bad program. There is no reason to deactivate the file manager just because a file is deleted. |
