When I create(from Word or WordPerfect) and/or download a file, save it to a storage location , there is a problem with the display of that file. Upon opening my storage location folder it is not visible, I must back into My Documents and advance to the folder AGAIN ..to have the folder displayed. I have created a personal doc (called my personal doc.. to drag and drop some files I have created) Upon opening there is NO my personal docs and all the files it contained are visible I then back into My Document and return...Viola!... there is My persoanl docs with the files inside. ALSO ... (example.. I have downloaded files(numbered 1 - 12 ) from my online class) when I enter into the folder from My Documents only 10 files are visible..9 & 11 are not visible, If I am saving/saving as or opening a file from within an application(Word or WordPerfect) 10 files display 8 - 12 are not visible. All 12 files can be reached but are not visible at the same time... please help

In addition to the suggestion to use F5 (shortcut key for Refresh), take a
look at the bottom of the file list for the names of of any newly created
files. You may find some of your missing files here as Windows Explorer
will display recently added files here (out of order from the other file
names) so that you can spot them in a glance. To get these file names into
alphabetical order you can: sort by name, click the header for the name
column (applies only if using Details view), refresh the window or switch
to another folder and back again.
