Pedantic Annoying Win Explorer Problem

Van_Dammesque · 19 Feb 2007 at 13:01

When I open a windows explorer (such as in "Save As" in office, but not normal windows explorer) the directories are not in alphabetical order, so I view by names, however, this setting isn't remembered in any application. :confused:

It used to work!

Is there a registry entry that automatically sorts by name when such a window is opened?!

Thanks!

Sorted it out I deleted the registry entry under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder
and deleted Favorites menu, also to sort out explorer from this site:
