One of the things that really annoys me in Windows Vista / Windows 7 is the new "auto sort" feature.

In Windows XP, whenever you copy a bunch of files to a folder, they are all placed at the end of the Explorer file list, until you manually refresh or navigate away; this is my preferred behaviour.

However in Windows Vista / Windows 7, as soon as the files have been copied, they are automatically sorted into the existing Explorer file list (all over the place) - I can no longer easily find them unless I change the sorting to "date modified". This tends to be unreliable and I usually never use this sort for the default view.

There's a [thread on TechNet about this problem](http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7itproui/thread/0519b7da-d01d-48e5-9b17-a1a7787f7ff8/), although I didn't see anyone there providing a solution.

Is there any way to completely disable this "feature"?
