VS 2017 actually has update page section as I expect.
1 version number.
and on the update page, a section for What is new with link to release notes.
Product is "Visual Studio 2017", I have no issue there.

Riddle me this...
Using Windows Explorer, I search my hard drive for thefileIwant.pdf. There are assorted variants of this file, so I have this list that comes back. But I decide I want the files shown in descending order. So, I click on the Date modified column, and... wait for it... does Windows Explorer just re-sort what it has? Nope, it searches the elephanting disk drive again.
This is behavior on such a stupidity level that it must be me. Right?

Apparently someone did not implement sorting of the list control's contents. Off hand, I can't think of a reason that would be a bad thing. There might be a ton of data in the list control but I don't see it can't be sorted. Reloading the data is effectively doing the same thing.

That's why I use Agent Ransack there is also a more Paranoid Ops friendly named version called FileLocator Lite.
It turns out a lot of people, myself included, when asking if they could install Agent Ransack were told "No!" or as in my case the network admin said "There's no way I am going to allow to to install software with the name ransack in it!" so they simply released a version with another name and people like me then get to use it.

Doesn't work that way for me. Sorts the displayed results. I am using W10. Is it possible that it was still doing the search when you changed sort? I tried doing this by searching ".dll" in entire computer and sorting did not seem to affect anything on UI.

Hmmm, well, getting closer to a response to the original question....
Unlikely - I'm testing it again though. I have nothing but SSDs, so the searches are usually fast but they are obvious (green bar running across the screen). I've seen this behavior for so long to include Windows 7.
Would your drive be indexed perhaps? I turn off indexing as it makes no sense on SSDs.
I just did a search across my data drive for all DLLS. Default was sorting by date modified. Sorting by name - off it goes.

Yes, the SSD is indexed (it is the way it is). I also have HDD which is also indexed. The search I am doing is across both drives.
It is weird though that I cannot see sort order changes during search itself affecting anything. I am not sure if it does anything in background. Once the results are out, any change does not seem to trigger search again.
Move to Windows 10 they say. Everything is great here they say.

Well, went off and indexed one of the drives. Same search behavior. File this under things that make you go hmmm.

Why doesn't everyone use either xplorer2[^] (free & paid versions, but IMO the best) or Q-Dir[^] (always free, and damned near the best)?
Or, indeed, any one of the dozens of other non-ms file explorers[^] that are available.
They all have one thing in common: They're better than the one that's bundled with windows.

I do sometimes wonder if Windows is an operating system. When it fails at the basic task of presenting a view on to the filing system it seems more like a noperating system (spacing deliberate).
