Folders Panel Does not Update/Refresh new Folders

The Folders Panel in Bridge is not updating when new folders are added.

 

When a new folder of RAW files is added to my storage drive, I organize the folders/files in Bridge. But the Folders Panel in Bridge does not show the new folders. They are visible on my drive, and in upper horizontal info bar in Bridge. Only the Bridge "Folders" panel does not update. Refresh does not reveal the new folders.

 

Also, please restore the feature for having multiple windows open in Bridge (a feature since the early versions). This was a highly useful feature for organizing/moving folders/files. Removing this feature serves no purpose, and is less efficient. At least offer a user option.

Mac OS 12.6.5 Bridge 13.0.3.693 (this was an issue in previous versions)

    Is there a way to refresh folders in Bridge? I cannot see any button to do that. Currently I cannot see any updates made to the folder!

    Is this a bug or is this feature simply missing in Bridge? Also, since my last update, Adobe Bridge is very sluggish and crashes often. Very unhappy with the performance right now and hope this will improve in future updates. Its really difficult to use right now.  

    *** Update ***
    I figured it out. To refresh the folders click F5 (in windows).

    When I copy a file into Bridge, it wont update by default. I now have to press F5 every time. Seems like a bug or bad coding. Windows Explorer updates automatically.

    My bridge is doing exactly the same thing but I can get it to update the content by clicking on the parent-folder. I have deleted settings and reinstalled but that did not solve anything. I also miss the multiwindow function!
