I'm using IShellBrowser::BrowseObject to navigate a shell view to another folder. and then, I want to use IShellView::SelectItem to select one file in the folder.
But I found IShellView::SelectItem will failed if I call this API immediately after IShellBrowser::BrowseObject.
Currently I start a timer to excute SelectItem until it success.
Do we have some reasonable way to do this?

    According to the question, you need to wait for changes using SHCNF_FLUSH.
