Visual Studio Solution Explorer Position

Does anyone know if there is a way to always make a certain tab appear at the top? I’d like to have solution explorer there.

I know I can pin and unpin until things get how I want them, but that can get messed-up with further pinning and unpinning.

  1. Pin Solution Explorer
  2. For each remaining tab: Pin it then drag it into the Solution Explorer tab so that it appears as a tab at the bottom of Solution Explorer.
  3. Order the tabs as you require at the bottom of Solution Explorer.
  4. Unpin and your tab order should be as you want.
