Windows 10: How do I stop File Explorer from alphabetizing my videos??

How do I fix this?? I'm trying to group a folder of videos by date, but File Explorer has them grouped alphabetically?? I've tried everything I can think of and I still can't figure it out! Please help!!!!

Locking the file explorer

After many failed attempts to disable the file explorer, automatic grouping of file names in alphabetical order suggested, the work around suggested fails miserably. Using the “group by” has been found to be completely incapable of working.
The “group by” procedure found online is”
1. Open the file explorer
2. Navigate to the folder containing the files to be renamed.
3. Click the view tab.
4. Click the down arrow to access the “Group by” pull down menu.
5. Clicking the “Date created” category or any other category except the “Name” category.
6. Again click the down arrow to access the “Group by” pull down menu
7. Click “None”
After manually changing the “File name” and clicking “Enter”. The “File name” category once again automatically reorganizes the in alphabetical order. In effect Steps 1 thru 7 accomplishes nothing.
Additionally, if I repeat the process in a folder containing nothing but “MP4 Video Files (VLC)” in the “Type” category” and run the “Group by” process it still continues to resort the names alphabetically. It then places a new blank Deltacad file into the Folder having files being renamed. It then launches and plays the changed video file with the VLC media player.

 

File explorer slow with loading thumnails and files

Step by step guide:
1. Hold Win+r to open run
2. Type msconfig and hit ok or enter
3. Click Services
4. Navigate to Windows search (you can sort the list in descending alphabetical order)
5. Uncheck tickbox
6. Click apply then ok
7. Select to restart now

Hope this works for you.

 

When saving a file, folders and files are not listed alphabetically

Although my files and folders are set to list "by name", ie alphabetically and do in file explorer, when I go to save a document the folders in the "Save As" box are not alphabetical and neither are the files in the folders in the Save As box. They are
also not listed by date created or modified; not sure what the listing is following though it's consistent. When I open File Explorer all folders and the files within them are arranged alphabetically but when I go to save a file they are not. This did not
happen with Windows 8.0 but since I went to Windows 10 it has been a problem. Any help in correcting this in the Save As view would be very much appreciated.
