Another reason we implemented the signing requirement is so that apps could not spoof other apps' TN icons/promo state. This becomes especially interesting when a certain ISV decides to switch their...

@Mike Caron; geez, it looks like even 128-bit integers won't have the necessary granularity (we're at about 1.4 * 2^184 Planck times since the Big Bang if I calculate this right.)

Calculating a little more carefully: 1 Planck time = 5.4e-44 seconds Age of universe = 1.37e10 years * (365.242 days/year) * (24 hours/day) * (60 minutes/hour) * (60 seconds/minute) / (5.4e-44 Planck...

To continue on what Simon said, a Folder Option to show timestamp instead of Minutes ago would be great.

Pls fix forced auto sorting in Explorer and make it optional. Files jumping on rename, copy-paste, extraction or creation make Explorer unusable.

Your instructions to press F5 to refresh the view are unnecessary as there is no way in Windows 7/Vista to not refresh/treating sorting as a verb. It's always refreshed and it's always sorted.

@Mike Caron, Re: Y10K/Planck time. I think we need even better granularity than that. The problem is that you can have two files created at the same Planck time. Or, at least, their metadata could...

I believe there is a setting to disable "friendly" file modification display in Win7, as my work installation of Win7 enterprise shows files' modification dates in full format. Maybe it's only enabled...

And instead people should not date their files with MM-DD-YYYY if you are going to put the date in the filename. Date it as YYYY-MM-DD and it self sorts. I realize this has nothing to do with the...

There are quite a few cases where the sort key stability is desired. One is when it's used to index a database. Although one could rebuild the index if the DBMS is upgraded. Another case is when you...
