    How to desegregate Folders/Files in File Explorer Sort By Functions?

    Hi,

    Sorting the layout of each folder is really dependent on the user's preference, that is why Windows has a variety of ways of sorting files and folders.

    To sort files and folders alphanumerically together, we can try grouping it by name.

    To do this, follow the steps below:

    • On the folder that you want to sort, click View.
    • Look for Group by and left-click on it.
    • Select Name.

    I would suggest you to try the following steps and check if that helps.

    • Go to the folder C:\Windows\System32 and sort by file type.
    • Look for the screensaver file type (.scr).
    • Find the file scrnsave.scr(you can choose any of the screensavers).
    • Right click and select send to>desktop (create shortcut). The shortcut on my attachment, but when i click on it my screen goes off and on and nothing else.I have a weird sort of file (or folder? shortcut? I really don't know what it is) in "This... :)

    How can i make File Explorer list shortcuts to folders with the folders?

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand that when you sort the files by Name in a folder the shortcut to folder goes at the bottom of the list. We would like to inform that this is by design and when you sort the files by
    Name the shortcut folder goes at the bottom of the list.



    However, we always appreciate our customer’s feedback. We would suggest you to post your feedback and suggestions in
    Microsoft Feedback Hub. The Microsoft
    Feedback Hub let’s you tell Microsoft about any issues or suggestions, which will help us improve the Windows experience.



    Regards,
