I don't know if a recent update broke this but I have my folders set up to group by none and sort by name ascending. Suddenly all my folders got reset and they are grouped and sorted by date modified. I tried the trick of setting my folder view up again the way I wanted and I went to folder options, view tab and clicked apply to folders. However, instead of applying to all folders it resets the current folder I'm in to be group and sorted by last modified.

Why is it doing this and how can I fix it?

Hi again, Arily

This is a @LesFerch specialty I think, if he wouldn’t mind me tagging him.
I refer you to:

WinSetView (Tool to Globally Set Explorer Folder Views)

WinSetView is a tool that will let you easily set File Explorer default folder views (including turning off grouping everywhere if so desired). It works by setting registry values that File Explorer already supports. It does not modify Explorer or add any tasks or services. Please follow the...
