    The newest update made the Downloads folders have huge date-based dividers...how to hide them?


    I want it to be how it was before, without any dividers between the files. There are different collapsible sections for "Yesterday", "Earlier this week", "Last week", "Last month", etc.


    I don't want the files to be in separate sections like that and I don't need the date-based organization. I just want them in one central space.


    I looked around in the options but there doesn't seem to be one that lets you turn the dividers off. Anyone know?

    :)

    Thank you for the response. Unfortunately none of those view options make a difference: the dividers stay present

    Right click within the downloads folder & choose to show small, medium or large icons.

    If this doesn’t work then I’ll check my pc when I get home.
