Very frustrating that MS does stupid stuff like this and doesn't bother to respond or give any indication that it will be fixed or not. I have searched and found multiple references to this bug in several threads in MS forums and elsewhere. Yet, no mention at all from anyone within Micrsoft except for clueless, unhelpful responses like instructions as to how to enable the "Expand to current folder" option -- which is insulting because CLEARLY everyone in these threads knows darn well exactly how to enable that option.
