Re: FileFind prcoedure sometime does not find existing file

I am using Ateasy 7 142g in windows xp

For some reason, FileFind(..) sometimes does not find RECENTLY  created files (by thrid party exe)
In the windows folders you can actually see the files but FileFind cannot see them.

It does not always, happen, just randomly...

What might be the reason for this to happen?

Internal.FileFind() uses Windows APIs FindFirstFile/FindNextFile . So I assume the issue is within these API, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-findnextfilea, Could be cache issue. What is RECENTLY? is it mSec before that? See if you can disable the drive volume caching from the disk manager have any effect.
