First things first, I guess ... Dell Optiplex 3010 with 8gb of RAM. Intel i5 Processor. came stock with Windows 7 Pro, upgraded to Win 10 Pro. any other details needed, I will be happy to provide.
I will do my best to have this make sense to all ... I have a few different folders of music files with like around 20.000 files in each at this time. I often do back ups to an external drive so, I find myself comparing two folders against each other to avoid duplicates with a somewhat different title. Say, like Title - Artist vs. Artist - Title.
Here is my issue, these folders are listed alphabetically, as they should be. I can be like, in the M's comparing the two folders and out of nowhere, both folders, will jump back to the beginning or, back to the numbered files or A's that are listed first. This gets frustrating as I usually lose where I was at and have to hope I can find my spot to move on.
Any suggestions or a solution would be greatly appreciated.
