It has to do with the formation of the solar system. Since all of the matter that condensed into what makes the solar system bodies was spinning in the same direction while coming together, it would have taken a drastic event to cause one of the bodies to orbit in a different direction.
The solar system formed from a cloud of fragments, all rotating in one direction. Before that, any fragments rotating in the other direction would have been eliminated by collision over a long period. Thus as the fragments coalesced into planets and other smaller objects, they retainedthe same hand of rotation.
During the formation of stars like our sun, gases are expelled whilst the new star spins extremely fast, so the expelled gases all rotate in the dame direction. These gases become planets eventually, because of gravity. Therefore the planets all orbit the sun in the same direction.
The 8 major planets all orbit the Sun in the same general direction, as well as most asteroids and several dwarf planets. This is counter-clockwise as seen from above the arbitrary North Pole of the Sun. The reason is that most of these bodies accreted from a spinning disk of matter around the Sun when it formed. This also created the original counter-clockwise spin of the planets (only Venus has lost this spin).
The orbits of comets and some small bodies have changed over time as they were affected by the gravity of the larger ones.
The laws of conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum ensure that any rotating, collapsing cloud will end up as a spinning disk.
If a planet is slowly orbiting a massive Sun, but does not drift into it, then obviously there is a repulsion force as well as the gravitational attraction.
If a planet is continuing in a steady orbit, without any impetus such as the propulsion that we find necessary to keep our probes and satellites from drifting off the path they are set upon, then something is either steadily pulling or pushing the planet to maintain its orbit in the face of all other influences. The influence of the orbiting planets upon each other would otherwise, over time, alter the orbits dramatically.
Why would they not? Each time a given planet lined up with the massive Jupiter, and was perturbed to speed up or slow down due to this influence, unless there were another influence this perturbed planet would remain in motion a bit slower or faster, perpetually. If the planets resume their motion around the Sun after being perturbed by each other, then the impetus setting them in motion is not inherent in the planets as an influence upon each other. A planet slowed by the influence of Jupiter behind its path would not speed up again to resume its steady pace unless this other impetus existed.
This other impetus, has the same basis as the magnetic alignment of the Earth and her Sun. This influence reaches beyond the Solar System, and dictates motion within the Sun not visible but nevertheless present. Just as the core of the Earth revolves at a speed dictated by the thickness of the Earth's liquid core, to chase away from or toward magnetic influences that exist in the Solar System, just so the Sun's core rotates, dragging her children around her like baubles on the ends of her apron strings..
The planets all go around the sun in the same direction because all the planets in this solar system were created from the same cloud of dust and gas that created the sun.
All major planets orbit the sun in the same direction because they all were formed on the same plane from the same cloud of gases. There are eight planets in the Solar System.
they were probably created at the same time being thrown off the sun and cooled to form planets, so they travel in the same direction
they all orbit in the same direction because of a gravitational pull.
All comets do not orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets. Some comets orbit in a clockwise direction, while others orbit in a counterclockwise direction.
All of the planets in our solar system orbit the sun in the same direction.
In fact, Venus, Uranus, and the "dwarf planet" Pluto orbit the Sun in the same direction as all the other planets. So all the planets orbit in the same way.However they rotate in the opposite direction to the other planets.
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, while the outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. They are the same in that they are spherical, the orbit the Sun in the same direction and they have an elliptical orbit.
All the planets discovered up to this date moves in same direction except uranus and venus.

no
Yes asteroids orbit the sun counter-clockwise, just like all the planets
Yes, all of the planets in out solar system orbit the sun counterclockwise (anticlockwise) when viewed from above the north pole looking 'down'. Not all of them rotate counterclockwise on their axis though, the two exceptions are Venus and Uranus.
All the planets discovered up to this date moves in same direction except uranus and venus.
The normal orbit of planets and moons is in the same direction as the spin of the parent body. The particular norm in our solar system is counter-clockwise. Planets or moons that orbit in the reverse direction (clockwise) are termed retrograde. Confusingly, the same term (retrograde rotation) is used to mean clockwise spin or rotation.
The orbits of comets are much more irregular than those of planets. Probably the majority do orbit in the same direction, but it's not a sure thing.
Most moons orbit their planet the same way the planet rotates. One of Neptune's moons is very different. That moon goes in the opposite direction of Neptune's rotation.
