    Setting default sorting options for folders?


    Is there a way to set a default sorting method for files in folders (by sorting I mean whether files in folders are sorted by date, name or whatever)?

    When I change the settings through the right click menu it only applies to the folder I'm in at the moment.

    :)

    Which mobile number is used for sending SMS?

    Windows Phone 7.5

    I can see the switch option, thanks. That sorts the default setting out.

    Yep, that's part of the tutorial I posted. I just linked it in the tutorial to save space to not have to repeat the same steps in it.
