Doesn't actually work! Windows still insists on grouping files all the subfolders and ordering the files by date, not by name!

My most heartfelt thanks. Very very good help, no language I cannot understand, no loud kid with thumping music, no one you can barely hear because they mumble, just the best, concise information I have hunted for over 6 months. I AM an old dinosaur. YOU are the best.

does not work, when you choose none and go to the foler options view and choose apply to all folders it will actualy reactivate the grouping very frustrating (grouping by none only works one time on 1 map restarting the computer or moving the files will again cause chaos)

You solved my problem in less than 1 minute, without saying a word. This is productivity at the best. I will look forward for more videos from you. Thanks for removing my everyday pain for ever!

this works fine for the file manager itself but when you open a file from another program the popup explorer window still has the today and yesterday stuff. is there any way of turning it off for the popup file manager windows too?

This is what I'm looking for thankyou so much <3

[ajgameboy]

Thank you so much... Was struggling to do this...

[claudiastutsman]

Thank you! Why do they auto apply this? So ridiculous to have to work this hard just to have a pure list by title.

Thanks be nice if Microsoft would stop updating crap in the middle of the night and having us wake up out folders being jumbled around.

[Spahija]

Finally got it to stop showing me files in chunks by day. Thank you.

The none is not there for me. It doesn't show up. All the other choices do

[peoples.say.masoom]

When I create any new older in win 11 or copy my files in a an empty folder my files get automatically sorted as groups which I don't like.
You solved my time and problem, ThankYou ❤❤

[matejvalent]

Worked for me, Thank you very much. One small thing but it was annoying me for long time.

[pcruns]

Doesn't work, when changing in Settings it goes right back to listing by date?

[magnushansen]

Thank you! This was such a pain in the butt

I've gone through this bullshit many times. [Applying settings to all folders, etc.] After a while, Windows changes all of these settings back to what the assholes at Microsoft want you to have. The only way to stop it is to switch to another operating system. [And, there are tons of bugs that are at least two years old - such as the navigation/left pane in FExplorer having the display jump up sometimes and down at other times (sometimes after a delay) - so that, when you expand a folder, you can't see what you just expanded. Apparently, all of the smart people have left MS, and the current employees are too stupid to be able to fix anything.]

Holy fuck thanks alot...changed to Windows 11 and its a PAIN because ALOT of the standard user frendly functions from Windows 10 are gone and need to search how to change stuff back to "normal" without to get braindamage lol...thanks for the video! :)
