    Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that doesn't work the way we wish it did. Pissing and moaning won't change that. Are you a Microsoft Channel Partner? I am. If you aren't in the program, you should join. Then you could submit your concerns directly to MS, where they will be mostly ignored unless you have something more significant to say.

    Lots of people have been complaining about this problem for a long time. Microsoft knows about it and won't fix it.

    Again, if this a real bug then how would you sort a mix of IPv4 and IPv6?

    I don't know anything about programming but I would think something like this would work...

    If IPv4
    then put address in IPv4 numerical order
    else put address in IPv6 alphanumeric string order

    I said a mix - not IPv4 or IPv6
    COMP1 - 192.168.0.5
    COMP2 - fdf8:f53b:82e4::53
    COMP3 - 192.168.1.10

    I don't understand your gripe about it. WGAF in which order they are as long as they are unique? You can still find out the IP of a computer and what computer has a certain IP easily.

    I give a f*ck. And evidently a lot of people do according to what I linked earlier.

    So again, what would sorting in numerical order of the IP parts do for you that sorting as string doesn't? Do you also complain that it doesn't sort first by hour and then by day?
