Can't move or arrange the tabs in android studio

Issue

For example I want to move the MainActivity code window/tab (highlighted in yellow in the screenshot below) to the left, but I when I drag and drop it goes back to being on the right. I can't move or arrange any number of open tabs.

Solution

Right click on MainActivity.kt, then select "configure editor tabs".

Make sure "sort tabs alphabetically" is unchecked. Probably one of the checks there is in charge of your problem.

You can click on the top right "reset" there, it should solve your problem.
