SYMPTOMS
You create, delete, copy, move, or change a file that is located on a SAMBA-based, network-attached storage device. However, the change does not appear in Windows Photo Gallery or Windows Live Photo Gallery. For example, if you delete a file, that file is still displayed.
This problem occurs when the network-attached storage device is a monitored server message block (SMB) share that is in Windows Photo Gallery or Windows Live Photo Gallery.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the SAMBA-based, network-attached storage device may not report file change notifications. Or this problem occurs because the file change notifications are lost.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, press F5 to update the file system representation in Windows Photo Gallery or Windows Live Photo Gallery. Or, restart the application.
