This has been driving me crazy. This behavior has to either be broken or else I'm missing a setting somewhere to make it work like it should.
When I move or copy a new file into a folder, the folder sort order is deselected (all column headers are un-highlighted). After the move or copy, the file sits within the folder in exactly the spot where I dropped it. In order to have it sorted in ascending order by file name, I'm required to:
1. Click on the Name column header. This selects Name, ascending as the sort order, but the files are not yet sorted. They remain as they were.
2. Click on the Name column again. This inverts the sort order and the files are then sorted into descending order.
3. Click on the Name column yet again and this finally gets them into the correct order.
Is there a way to have Explorer _not_ deselect the old sort order and to have files automatically sorted as new files are added to a folder?
