hi
I have installed WDS 4 on vista, its installed sucessfully but nothings
changed.

I have no deskbar option in the toolbars menu, also theres no option to add
unc locations in index options.

Its like it hasnt been installed at all and im running standard version of
search that comes with vista.

Ive tried removing and reinstalling

Vista Windows Explorer - invalid sorting

Hi,

has anyone noticed that Windows 2008/Vista Windows Explorer doesn't sort file entries correctly? This is how it shows 5 entries, sorted by name:

03001A36.HTM
03001A39.HTM
030014D2.HTM
030017F1.HTM
030017F4.HTM

Re: Vista Windows Explorer - invalid sorting

Hi, Axel.

I gave you the KB article that explains this in response to your OTHER post.
When you MUST post the same question in more than one NG, please crosspost,
rather than multiport.

Once again, see:
The sort order for files and folders whose names contain numerals is
different in Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 than it is
in Windows 2000
