  1. How to sort documents


    I have copied my documents from win 7 to win 10 build 9879 and they are reversed in order.

    For example zip codes is listed first, while acronis is listed last on the page. There are about 50 total
    docs. on the page. Does anyone know how to make it sort the documents alphabetically ?
    I've tried all the options that I can find and see no way to make it do that. I want it A TO Z, Not
    Z to A .. *Biggrin

    **** Never mind answering, I found it... I right clicked in the docs folder and the option is there to sort
    either by ascending or descending.. Thanks anyway..

    :)

    How do I find the tools I was using in Windows 7 such as sorting and spell check?

    I have just installed Windows 10 and can't find where to sort my document or how to use spell check on a document.

    I looked for toolbars and can find nothing about how to do basic operations to my documents.

    Where can I find the old tools I used to have?

  3. How do I sort files by size?

    I have a long list of Word documents and need to sort them smallest to largest.

    They can be selected by range, how silly is that?

  10. File explorer sorts my folders in documents alphabetically

    in Windows 10 Network and Sharing
    File explorer sorts my folders in documents alphabetically: but I don't want them to be split into 3 columns of A-H, I-P and Q-Z. I want them to be in one list without being divided up. It isn't necessary in my book anyway!. Thanks for any help....
