    Sort by Length in Windows Explorer doesn't always work

    I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit and Music Converter 13.4.

    I have a game music website which I'm setting up. A lot of people upload music files but they also include sound effect files which are only between 1-45 secs in length which I don't allow because they're not really music. So I want to delete them. In Windows Explorer, to avoid having to manually hover the cursor over each file to see what it's length is, I just sort the files by Length. Then I only have to hover the cursor over a few files instead of 100.

    My problem is that about every 100 albums I check, there's usually 1 album that doesn't filter the tracks once I click on the "Length" button in the toolbar. The tracks are of random lengths. I've uploaded some files from the latest album where I had this issue:



    Please download them, filter them by Length and then hover over each file to see for yourself. Why does this happen and can you fix it? Thanks.

    Is the Length column filled correctly for those files, is it the wrong value, or blank?

      Problem discovery basically should stop there:
      vista-windows-explorer-incorrectly-sorting

      Why would you expect Vista explorer to sort correctly?!

      Or are you just advertising your website?
