    Windows 10 File Explorer "jumps" to top of long list of files


    This is one of the most annoying problems I've encountered with Windows 10. When looking at a long list of files using the File Explorer, no matter what I want to look at, it quickly jumps back to the top of the list. I know this is not a new problem my search shows a complaint from July 31, 2015. An answer to that complain posting was to "turn off the Automatic Accent Color for your backgrounds." That's not acceptable. I like the color changing automatically what the hell does that have to do with the File Explorer "jumping"? Is there another work-around, or is this just another ever continuing screw up by Microsoft?

    :)

  2. Viewing long list of files in Window 10

    Why does the folder jump to files at the top of a long list in windows 10?

    Can the folder be setup so that it does not jump back to the top of the list?

  3. File Explorer Jump List

    Hi, New PC Win 10 installed been working fine for about a year. All of a sudden, could have been after an update, and whilst all other jump lists are fine, the File Explorer jump list won't let me open an item by left clicking on it. To open an file
    from the File Explorer Jump List I have to right click to open the jump list then right click again to open the mini menu and then I can left click the word Open. This is so annoying when you're used to just left clicking the file once the jump list is open.
    Any ideas anyone apart from restore. thanks.

    Windows 10 File Explorer "jumps" to top of long list of files

    Windows 10 File Explorer will jump to the top of the list regardless of if it's focused or not

    I think I may have found the solution. I hope it's just a temporary fix (before they can get a patch updated), but I've been watching my Windows Explorer folder for the past five minutes and it hasn't jumped to the top of the list like it always has since
    the issue started!
