Files to reorganize randomly when I try to rename them

OK Let's say I have a file with 10 records inside... appointed in order for example, a (1), a (2) ect.  If I rearrange them like I want to, and then highlight all rename them, no matter what I do when the name change occurs that each file transpose randomly. Its a such minor problem but he's so anonnying when im trying to keep things organized. Maybe theres a simple solution but ive yet to find. This happens with images as well. Ive tried all the options "group by" "sort by", ascendant, descendant, automatic reorganization, but nothing works. I don't think I've had this problem with windows xp, vista just. Any ideas would help thanks

Unfortunnately, you can't really sort individual files without using one of the options available so (meaning by the column headings - it is just the way Vista was designed (and I don't like it any more than you).)  You can take a few general ajdustments as explained below - but not to a file.  To sort a specific folder in a way, the only way I know (a workaround solution) is to create a column that is not used (and comments) and it y of the input data that will take care of the files in the order you want (like 1,2,3,...) and then sort by this column - but a change and you need to reset all the ads column (and if you don't also for files I don't know how they'll sort - perhaps randomly, or how they have been sorted before you make the change - I'm not sure).  This applies to all 5 types of windows files.  Although you can save the folder view, you can'tsave a specific sort order.  If they sort randomly when you rename, simply click on a column heading and they will be used by using this header.

Here is some additional information on how to adjust the folder models and sort orders that can help you.

Here's how to change the default template for a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets the folder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to reset the Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase the view of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.

It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with, open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the good File menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free program http://autosizer.en.softonic.com/ to resize them.

Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

I hope this helps in your situation.

Good luck!
