Windows 10: Organize folders by numeric attribute. Assigning number to folder.

I'm looking for a way to organize files/folders in a numeric order without changing the name of the file/folders.The end result would be i could organize material from class based on the order assignments are given to me.My current system is labeling folders like this:Title^1.Eng-"Dog" 2.Eng-"Cat"3.Eng-"Bird"But Id rather have this: #^Eng-"Dog" ------------------------ #1Eng-"Cat" ------------------------ #2Eng-"Bird" ------------------------ #3I understand there is a sort by number option but I can't attribute a number to files within the properties pane.Any solutions?

changing file and folder attributes

Continuing the theme of changing attributes....
i now realise that certain file attributes can’t be user defund, as they are read only....
But it seems gilders are even worse.....I have 12 folders January to December.......but windows list these alphabetically......such that April is first followed by August.

cant see any way of changing the sort order, although there may be a way to sort by an attribute, but it seems that It is NOT possible to assign ANY folder attributes......nothing much has changed in this matter since XP....

unless anyone one knows differently

 

Trouble deleting a folder

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

Date Attributes of Parent Folder based on Child Folder Attributes

Hi,

Running Windows 10 ver 1909 (build 18363.1256)

I am looking for a way to change Date Attributes (at the very least, the Date Created attribute) of a series of Folders. Each folder has one or more sub-folders that have a date in the Folder Name, and each of their Date Created attribute reflects this same date too.

I would like the Parent Folder to have the latest Date Created of its sub-folders.

Example:
Parent Folder:

• Project-XYZ

Child Folders:

• SubTask - 2019-08-07 - Title - Otherinfo
• SubTask - 2021-02-05 - Title - Otherinfo
• SubTask - 2020-06-19 - Title - Otherinfo

I would like the Date Created timestamp of Project-XYZ to be the latest from the SubTask folders, which in this case would be 2021-02-05.

Please note: I don't want the date reflected in the folder name, but in the Date Created attribute.
