Got this problem pretty early on, but for some reason, in the last few weeks, its really become a major annoyance.
When I open certain folders, the folder will say empty, even though I know there is stuff in there.
Sometimes when I click on my computer, it will show nothing....no drives...and its even done this with the control panel.
I use music software which scans a vst folder for the dll files of plugins, then lists all of them.....I then tick all the ones I want to use, and its supposed to stay set like that, but the other day, it deleted this list. I can still use them, but they are no longer visible on this list.
Accompanying all this misreading of folders is the green bar at the top of the windows, which scans and takes a long time
Things I have tried :
Changing file icons via properties / customize , and setting to general content.
Ive run sfc/scannow 4 times and it says windows resources found corrupt files but could not fix them, and details were in cbs.log, which i cannot open.
Ive run a full system scan with avast and malware bytes, and both came up with nothing
The problem got worse around the same kinda time that I installed a native instruments komplete 6 audio intercace, though im not sure if its directly connected.
I had audio latency problems with this interface and took it back to the store and replaced it for an akai EIE pro interface, but these search / view problems continue , and other things are becoming slower as well , like net pages.
I am currently trying to refresh windows 8, and tried before but windows said it was unable to do it.
It is now on a page that says "preparing to refresh your pc" and has said that for an hour at least
Im using an asus 2.8ghz machine with 4gb of ram. Its quad core intel , and is running windows 8 64bit .
Please, someone kindly help sort this out.
Thanks in advance.
