Workspace (.xlw) hiding top workbook

Hello all,
I regularly utilize .xlw files to open sets of workbooks all at once. Usually, they're made up of 10-15 workbooks, using the cascade arrangement.

Problem is, each time I re-open my .xlw file, the workbook that was supposed to be in the top is hidden. If I re-configure and re-save the .xlw file, the top workbook still disappears.

If I open the native file for the top workbook, it is not hidden when I open it.

Any idea what might be causing this? It's driving me crazy!!!

Thanks!

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Hello aliper,

Hope you have found the solution, If not here the solution which worked for me when I had the similar problem(now).
The top workbook should be the first file in the folder/list of workbooks (selected for .xlw) when arranged by their name (alphabetically).

Thanks
