Thunar not refreshing automatically

Hi everyone

I am having a recent issue with Thunar : it does not refresh the display by itself after any change in the filesystem.

As far as I remember it did untill recently, I coudl not say precisely when but I am sure I did not change any setting.

Where could I start searching ?

Thanks

Re: Thunar not refreshing automatically

I am having a recent issue with Thunar

What version of thunar?

it does not refresh the display by itself after any change in the filesystem.

Which filesystem? local or remote? What kind of filesystem?

Where could I start searching ?

It's probably this bug. It should be fixed in the next version

Thanks for replying
Thunar version, I see : $ rpm -qa | grep thunar
thunar-volman-0.9.1-1.fc29.x86_64
fs is a local one, ext3 on Fedora linux

Btw I'm asking myself if the "ShadowDrive" which is a daemon which performs a shadow in the cloud backup of changes happening to the local system could block something ?
