An Annoying Habit
I have seen quite a few computer users - incloding the local office techie - right click on the desktop and then click "Refresh". And they do this around six or seven times in succession. To me this is annoying - serves no purpose and it is the computer equivalent of running nails across a chalkboard...
I was given the reason for "internal changes take place this way". Which I find rather daft, but what do I know? Maybe it was true in the Win 95 era or something, but I find it hard to believe it works even for Win XP on today's snazzy 3 GHz PCs... What is the truth behind this?
