    WIN 11 File Explorer "Sort by Date Modified" Error


    I am marking a large number of student scripts each day. The marked ones are saved and archived in a specified folder, up to ca 200 files. The latest one saved is then uploaded to the relevant student's course webpage.When I save a script in Word format, it is saved in date order, at the top of the list -easy to find.When I save a script in PDF format, it is saved at the bottom of the list - a real pain to find.I have tried "resetting" the folder settings - makes no difference. How can I persuade, tell, force, Explorer always to place the latest files at the top of the listing?

    :)
