I found it was convenient after renaming files and folders. In Vista I have to click View > Refresh, but there is no hotkey or button that I can find. Anyone know if it's possible?

I've always doing it "View > Refresh", but I could imagine the convenience of that button.. possibly right click- refresh?
Who said I couldn't have everything?

There is a refresh button (Up arrow/Down arrow) at the end of the Address bar.
