Hello~

I use the 'category' property on the Summary tab of a file's properties, and
then choose "Arrange by category" to sort files in several of my folders so
that related files are more easily identified. However, most of the time,
the first time I open the folder in the morning, some of the files are in the
wrong category, and some say that the category is "Unspecified." All I have
to do is right-click and refresh the folder, and then all the files end up in
the correct category. My question is, why does this happen in the first
place? Is there anything I can do to ensure that files end up under the
correct category? It may not seem like much, but it really annoys me.

Thanks.
