Workarround to MS ReadDirectoryChanges bug

Browse Source 
This is an workaround to deal with Microsoft issue in ReadDirectoryChanges notification
If command prompt is used to write file continuously (e.g. ping -t 8.8.8.8 > ping.log)
Then ReadDirectoryChanges does not detect the change.
The workarround is about using Notepad++ notification while Notepad++ getting focus.
