Windows XP >> File order It seems that when I browsed files the folder would have them in
alphabetical order. Now they are to jumbled and I have to specify I want to
see them in alphabetical order. and if I'm selecting several files I have to
keep specifying. Is there a way to set this so that the files are always in
alphabetical order in the folder?

Thanks

Open Windows Explorer and select "Details" from the "View" menu. Click on
the "Name" header of the listview. This toggles sorting of the filenames
either ascending or descending order. Now click on "Tools" menu > Folder
Options > View. Click "Apply to all folders" button.

Windows XP >> File order Set up Windows Explorer the way you want it, then go to the Tools menu,
Folder Options, and on the View tab, click "Apply to All Folders".
