Active tab fixed to the left in Visual Studio

I have recently installed a few tools in Visual Studio, such as Resharper and Power tools.

And now my Visual Studio seems to be "smarter" than before. Whenever I switch to another tab, this active tab will be set as the first tab.

How can I disable this behaviour?

The active tab behavior also changed for me randomly after restarting VS. This is how I fixed it (with Productivity Power Tools extension installed) :

Tools -> Options -> Productivity Power tools -> Custom document well -> Sorting -> Uncheck Most recently used
