ReactOS Receives Fix For A Very Annoying Usability Issue - Phoronix (www.phoronix.com)

ReactOS began 2026 with another "major step" towards Windows NT 6 compatibility with updating its MSVCRT implementation from Wine for the Microsoft C Runtime DLL library. That improved support for a number of Windows applications running on this open-source OS. ReactOS is taking another step-forward now with addressing a very annoying usability issue where up until now you may need to refresh the file manager for seeing folder changes.

I wonder if you can run Double Commander on ReactOS. I use it on Windows and it seems not to have this "usability issue", apart from being very convenient in other ways too...
