Sort your files and folders to make them easier to locate.
- Know the name of the file? Sort by filename.
- Looking for a particular type of file, for example, a word document? Sort by file type.
- Trying to locate a large file? Sort by file size.
In ‘File Explorer’ click ‘View’- Click ‘Details’.
Column headers will be displayed at the top of each column. These are typically Name, Date modified, Type and Size.
The arrow in the header row indicates which field and how the contents are being sorted. The tip of the arrow represents A, the oldest date or the smallest size.
Click the column header once to sort by that column.- Click the column again to reverse the sort.
In the example above, the arrow next to 'name' indicates this is the column being sorted. The arrow pointing upwards indicates it is being sorted A-Z.
