On the Bridge


 
 

Re: Vista annoying "feature"

Hello, as far as I know autoarrange applies only to the desktop,
when I tried doing it inside windows explorer that option is grayed out...
see screenshot http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/8366/ccpp2.jpg
I dont have autoarrange on the desktop either...

Any other ideas?

Perhaps a registry tweak?
