Hi,
I have an encfs protected folder with office data and wrote a script that asks for a password and unlocks it. I want to have the documents in this folder in a folder view widget on a certain activity. Problem is, the folder view app only shows "folder does not exist" because that was the case when the desktop started (before folder was unlocked). How can I update the folder view (or restart it) from the script after it mounts the folder? I tried stopping and restarting the activity but to no avail, folder view does not update. What can I do?

I know I can manually update the folder viewer with right click/refresh but that's not what I want, I want it to refresh automatically.

Thanks for any help in advance.
