Re: sorting toolbar items

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



On the View menu, point to Arrange Icons by | Name

In details view, by default Windows Explorer displays files and folders in
ascending order.

To sort items using a different column..

In the Contents pane, click the category that contains the items that you
want to sort.

To sort items in ascending or descending order, click the column heading,
notice which way the arrow is pointing.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
