SourceTree is not refreshing the file changes and stage unstage status - windows

Recently SourceTree stopped working and do not refresh the files which are changed. It was working fine for a year. My settings are correct. "Refresh automatically when files change" is also checked in options -> general.

When I change or stage a file I have to close and then reopen the Source Tree to see the changes.

I was also not able to resolve the conflicts as external tool was not opening.

I did several attempts bt restarting the computer and uninstalling reinstalling the software. But it was still behaving same. Because it was not deleting the directory C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree on uninstall.

Following solution helped me fix the issue.

  1. Close SourceTree
  2. Go to the directory C:\Users\[your-username]\AppData\Local\Atlassian
  3. Rename SourceTree to _SourceTree (in order to backup your configurations)
  4. Open SourceTree and it was working.
