  1. Disable "Group by" or set default to "(none)" in Windows 10 1903 ?


    now ever since last years disastrous update that caused Data loss, i put off Feature updates as long as possible till i find there's no OS Breaking bugs (i shouldn't have-to do that a update shouldn't make the user fear data loss >_>)got lazy and eventually just let the update occur.

    and i get introduced to their wonderful "we know better than you we'll force it down your throat" default grouping on the Downloads folder. now i know i can set it to "group by: (none)" to restore it to teh way it was, but it doesn't stick.

    is there any known way at the moment (registry edit, GPO, 3rd party tool, etc) to make the default back to "none" ? (i've seen a few posts while trying to look on google about this and see people saying "Just accept it." "its better this way!" etc. My PC, my system i'd rather have it the way i had it.

    :)

  2. Disable group by in Downloads folder (Windows 10 1903)

    Hi, since I updated to the new Windows 1903 version the files in some folders like
    "Downloads" are always grouped by the date. I was able to disable this in the File Explorer itself by choosing
    "Group by = none". But in all kind of "Save as" dialogs from any application the group by date still appears and in those special explorer windows there is no option to disable file grouping in them. So how can I disable this globally?

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  4. Disable "Group by" or set default to "(none)" in Windows 10 1903 ?

    Change the default work group to something else in Win. 10

    Single computer not on a domain, not networked or going to be.

    It will not allow me to set up a home group. I have conflicting information. The system info page shows I am a work group. However in the network settings I changed it to public and it is listed that way in network neighbor hood.

    I want to change to a private network and create a home group but it will not allow me to do so.

    I have disabled file and network shareing and network discovery for personal reasons and I have no intention to allow this ever. To me Win 10 is far to permissive by default and have been takeing steps to remedy that.

    Thank you.
