File Grouping

Victor Gouveia
Hi Folks,
I just updated to Windows 10 version 1903, and my files seem
to be grouped by date, or at least, the last time I accessed them.
The go by today, last week, last month and so on.
Can I shut this off, and if so, how?
I’ve looked through the view menu and it seems like everything
is set like before the update, but I still can’t get it to look
right.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi Victor,
This is because you need to change
the, Group By, setting to, None, in the view menu. While in a folder,
let's use the Downloads folder as an example. Press, Control + spacebar,
so Jaws reports, not selected. Open the context menu with the Applications
key or Shift + F10. Press enter on the, View submenu, choose what you
want, list , details or... and press enter. Open the context menu and open
the, Sort By submenu, and press enter on your choice. Now open the context
menu and open the, Group By submenu, find, None, and press enter.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! If at first you DO succeed, try not to look astonished!

Give the following a try;
The, Group By, in the View menu needs to be changed. Try the following:
1. Open your Downloads folder, or, your documents folder, and press, Control + spacebar, to make sure nothing is selected. 2. Press the applications key or Shift + F10 to open the context menu. 3. In the View submenu press enter on, List, or whatever you want from this submenu. 4. Open the context menu again, open the, Sort By submenu, and press enter on, Name, or whatever your choice might be. 5. Open the context menu again, down arrow to the, Group By submenu, and press enter on, None. That's it, you should be good to go.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for this, it helped, byt only temporarily. When I
go to aply to all folders, it reverts back to the grouped items and changes the
sort order to date accessed.
Any idea what’s going on?

If you deselect all files in the folder, then do a right click and from the menu go the group by sub menu and select none That should fix it

Hi Victor,
To be clear, are you attempting to apply the view to all folders while still in the folder with the issue and not from the Control Panel?
For example, after performing the steps outlined earlier in let’s say the Downloads folder:
I apologize if these are in fact the steps you tried. This is what I had to do to make the setting stick.
Good luck.

I’m still having the same problem. I can’t locate an option to set all folders to the same view like we used in earlier versions. In File Explorer I hear progress percentages and then my sort by choice is shown- but windows seems to be reconfiguring it when I open Explorer. But if I open my user name, downloads- the display reverts to the order by date thing after a while- which is making us all nuts 😉

Are you saying that you apply the view from within the folder you modified or from the control panel? Thanks.

5. Open the context menu again, down arrow to the, Group By submenu, and press enter on, None. here's where most likely the issue is, you can't find none in the list, so, while in the list, press enter on name, go back into group-by menu, arrow down you should find none press enter your done. That's it, you should be good to go.

Hi Mauricio,
Yes, I am applying to all folders from within the folder
itself, I am not going into the control panel for any part of this.
On the flip side, it has corrected itself, and I guess my
settings finally synchronized with the cloud.
Perhaps the 1903 update wasn’t as flawless as we were led to
believe. LOL.
