If you're focused on a specific process why don't you sort by Name or PID instead? Problem solved.– joeqwertyCommented Sep 15, 2017 at 15:41

@joeqwerty: I never said I'm focused on a single process (especially when there is a need to scroll the process list for some reason or another). What makes you think so?– Alexander AbakumovCommented Sep 15, 2017 at 15:51

You said in your question that this happens when you have a specific process selected. Your selection is focused on that process. You may not be "focused" on that process from a thought/mental aspect, but your selection has that process focused. That's what I was getting at.– joeqwertyCommented Sep 15, 2017 at 15:54

@joeqwerty: I see now. But consider the case: you selected a process, did what you need and forgot about it and Task Manager. You returned to it in an hour with the different task in your mind. That process is still selected. You sorted as you need, started scrolling and boom it undermines all your effort by stubbornly scrolling back to that process. This is even not talking about the case when you might have been selected a random process just mechanically, not intending to focus on it.– Alexander AbakumovCommented Sep 15, 2017 at 16:02

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
