I love this theme (Hyperdesk Flagship). It's very, very cool.
It'll be even better when a few minor kinks and crinkles are found and removed.

I've discovered an inconvenience, but a major problem (in my opinion, of course) nonetheless.

When I have multiple Explorer's open and doing system housekeeping (i.e. cutting, pasting, copying, moving, etc.) the Explorer windows do not refresh.

If I cut from Explorer #1 and paste into Explorer #2 (different folder, of course) then neither Explorers reflect the change. F5 (Refresh) works fine, thank goodness.

But it's an inconvenience because F5 repositions to the top of the folder. Furthermore, when desiring to maintain position in a folder listing, do housekeeping, and then move on to entries that follow, it becomes very time-consuming. The position where you were becomes temporarily lost. Not to mention the mental concentration being broken and consumed by a necessary workaround.

The matter of refresh also encompasses file names themselves.
When renaming a file the name does not visibly change UNTIL refresh (F5) is invoked. Of course, if the new name would wind up at the bottom of the folder listing then reposition and scrolling becomes annoying.

A final discovery is when creating a New Folder. When invoking New --> New Folder, the folder cannot be seen at all UNTIL refresh (F5) is invoked. It's then that the folder can be seen and its name changed. Of course, changing the name of the folder, as mentioned above, is a problem and the new folder name cannot be seen UNTIL another F5 is invoked.

I am running XP (SP3) with very few bells and whistles installed on my system. In fact, Hyperdesk is one of the few I've installed, in addition to Yahoo! Widgets (and only a few of those).

I repeat, I like this theme (Hyperdesk Flagship) and hope the issue boils down to, "Oops! Forget to issue a refresh folder -- maintain position" command.
