Bug in Explorer? With extenstions it cant "discover"
issue 1 of 2.. Issue 2 is in different thread.
If you have a solution great. If you see this as a bug, how do you report bugs?
Now gut reaction would make you post it is 3rd party software compatablility issues not a W7 bug. But what I am concerned about is the way W7 explorer gets stuck and cannot do the simple task of deleting the.. I had to delete the files with these extension on an XP machine that was networked to the W7 machine.
I have photoImpact software that has extensions of .ufo none of the pictures with that extension will delete or show properties.
When asking to delete the Recycling window displays and just sits there and can sit there for 10 15 minutes until you exit from it. the window reads "discovering items" (It doesn't hang because although you can't cancel it, you can hit the X button)
When asking for the properties nothing happens.
when trying to move it into a folder (hoping I can delete the folder). I get stuck similar to the delete action.)
Yes the software is installed and associated with the extension. And yes, it seems the product isn't associating right with the product. But Shouldn't W7 allow you to delete the files that are no longer supported, and not force you to live with the dead wood forever? There should be something that after a period comes back and says "Items not discovered, Would you like to delete?" And then delete them, at best.
