Very slow at detecting changes in ReFS

[VarunAgw]

My system disk is NTFS and other disk is ReFS

If I create a file in NTFS, it's visible immediately in everything. If I do it in ReFS, everything will take 10 seconds for the change to be visible.

How do I fix it?

It's a limitation with ReFS dev drives.

ReFS dev drives will buffer changes before writing them to the USN Journal to reduce IO ops.

I am hoping Microsoft add options to adjust the delay.

Use a regular ReFS format or NTFS, or use folder indexing (Tools -> Options -> Folders)

Thanks.

Is their any way to get regular ReFS drive in Windows 11 Pro?

Regular ReFS also have the delay now.

Add your Refs volume to Tools -> Options -> Folders.
(and remove your ReFS volume from Tools -> Options -> ReFS -> ReFS Volume -> Uncheck Include in database)

Thanks. I am giving it a try.

If it doesn't work, I don't mind switching back to NTFS either
