Has anyone encountered the problem where if you save something (for me it's internet explorer) and overwrite a previous file, the file remains unchanged. HOWEVER, as soon as you change the file name to something else then the file's contents are what you saved. If you change the file name back to the original name when it was overwritten, then the file contents return to the old version. CHange the name to some new name, and once again the files are what they were supposed to be.
The actual file I access when I open it (a Internet Explorer archive *.mht file in my case) depends on what the file name is.
UPDATE- This has only been happening with files in a particular folder. if I copy the file to another location (regardless of the name it currently has) the copied file at the new location will have the correct updated contents)
UPDATE- CHanging the name of the folder in question seems to cause all the files within to open to be the correct, most recent files. CHanging the folder name back to what it was before reintroduces the problem.
