Weird thing going on with arranging images in explorer

seems when I try to arrange, sort and stack by date or name of screenshots because they are all mixed up... no matter what I do they are always out of order... can't seem to find some help on this topic...


thanks in advance

 

Try this

If Windows doesn't remember folder view settings and folder views keeps changing or resetting in your Windows PC, follow these simple steps to fix this problem:

1. Type regedit in RUN or Start search box and press Enter. It'll open Registry Editor.

2. Now navigate to following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell

3. Under "Shell" key, select "Bags" key and press "Delete" key. It'll ask for confirmation, click on Yes button.

4. Now right-click on "Shell" key and select "New -> Key" option. Set the name of new key as Bags

5. Now right-click on "Bags" key and select "New -> Key" option. Set the name of new key as AllFolders

6. Again right-click on "AllFolders" key and select "New -> Key" option. Now set the name of new key as Shell

So the final key path will be:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\AllFolders\Shell

7. Now click on this new "Shell" key and in right-side pane, create a new String value and give it name as FolderType and set its value to NotSpecified



8. That's it. Either restart your system or log off and now Windows will no longer forget or automatically change your customized folder view type settings.

Hope this helps.
