Are you navigating Explorer using its tree view, or using the window containing files of the current folder, where you go up a level with Backspace? 
Where Steve asked about the preview pane, he might have been thinking of thumbnails.

Subject: [nfbcs] Strange Behavior in Windows Explorer

                I am using Windows 7. Windows Explorer is doing something
really weird. When I first open a location or go up a folder level, if there
are a lot of folders, instead of staying on the folder out of which I just
came, it will jump down the folder list. For a given location, it always
jumps to the same item, or rather, item in a certain position in the list. I
have tried everything, including maximizing the window and making sure that
the view is in list view, but nothing seems to help. It is annoying and
often leads to unintended results as I usually move faster than JAWS can
talk, so, if events do not happen as expected, I end up in the wrong place.
Has anyone else had this happen, and, if so, what did you do about it?

 

Nicole
