Possible to prevent the Microsoft Excel Objects folder tree from expanding on its own?

Within the Visual Basic Editor on the left side there is the Microsoft Excel Objects folder tree that contains all of the sheets in the workbook.

The workbook that I am working in has many sheets and it "pushes down" the Modules folder and Class Modules folder, forcing me to scroll down to see them. Or, if I collapse the Microsoft Excel Objects tree, this helps but then if I click onto a sheet within Excel, the Microsoft Excel Objects folder expands again on its own. (ugh)

So, in order to see the Modules folder, I have to either click the minus sign a million times throughout the day, or I have to scroll down constantly.

Is there a way to prevent the Microsoft Excel Objects folder tree from expanding on its own?
 

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.

Great, seemingly unanswered, Question.

Toggle Folders in the Project Window;

This rearranges the order of the objects with Modules On Top and, more crucially, Expands all the Nodes

The Project Window now stays looking the same; the Active Object (eg Module or Sheet) Highlighting
is the only thing that changes
