    My Documents display in Windows 10


    Is there a way to change the way the folders and files are displayed in My Documents?

    I recently upgraded to 10 but I have a slight issue with 'My Documents'. Most of my files are in folders in My Documents and in Windows 7 I was able to filter by most recent updated with folders listed first followed by the documents which are not saved in folders. I have not found a way to duplicate this convenient display in 10.

    :)

  3. Microsoft word Document Word 97-2003, 2 question pure text & text with small images What MS should I be using ?

    My first question is that I opened Word 97-2003 document and in ALL cases it states that this document is a word 97-2003 document and can’t be edited

    So as created on a PC what Microsoft word documents (year) should I be creating these documents as I have just been say copying a document in part as 97-2003 the new document is that also

    Finally the un-editable W 97-2003 document if ALL text is displayed correctly formatted highlights except for Non edit perfect

    If the document has any photo or images which are 3 at most the text is left justified and only 10 characters wide so this question would be ONE NEAT column of words.

    Any document W97-2003 with images created on a PC sent to myself as an attachment to a email ONLY on PC is 100% EDITABLE and displayed as it should, BUT if viewed after download or via office is essentially just one column 10 characters wide

    Question

    What microsoft Word version should I be using on a PC that if I do need to edit on my windows phone I can

    ATM

    No images display on phone is OK NOT EDITABLE

    With images a column "10" display NOT, NOT! ok NOT EDITABLE

    Thanks

    My Documents display in Windows 10

    When you right click blank area within Documents and select Sort by. This what you mean ? Select date modified or then have Date, size, type and Name.

    That sort of helps. Now My Documents has things broken down by Today, 4 Weeks ago and all of that, and I don't like that either.

    I do not see any other way, trying to recall as Windows 7 was quite some time ago, wondering if Windows 8.1 had it different. Only other is Grouping.

    Doesn't clicking on the Date Modified column heading do that? It does for me though files show up first which may not be to your liking, but the folders further down are sorted as I would expect.
