I'm using Vista ultimate, on a project which has reasonably large file
storage of about 30,000 files in some folders. Files are named using guids
with all formatting removed so filenames just use ascii 0..9 a..f with the
..ext on the end.
Why does explorer not sort the files when you click on the filename header
column, and instead display them in a psuedo sorted/random order. It sorts a
chunk of about 1000 files correctly, then starts another chunk all over
again, which it sorts correctly, add infinitum.. The machines all have 1.0GB
RAM. Appears to happen in earlier OS as well??
Also, why does vista display every other folder with different zoom and
column layouts after I specifically click "Apply to all folders".
It's really, really pissing me off.
