Don't use url shorteners here. The real url is http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-f...

Thanks for that... Hadn't noticed HN automatically truncates long URLs.

Irrelevant tangent: More support forums need that "Me too" button.

It was bad form to just post a link without any background...

There is a well-known usability bug in Win7 explorer that the engineers are aware of but don't seem to care about.

Bug report: http://connect.microsoft.com/WindowsServerFeedback/feedback/...

More discussion: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-f...

I'm irritated because it seems the only attention given to Win7 is critical/security fixes, while any non-critical bugs will be ignored and the answer will be to simply buy the next version of Windows if you want the problem to go away. IMO a lack of attention to detail and caring about your users.
