Just recently, when I look for a file in windows explorer, the files are not arranged in alphabetical order, they are arranged randomly.
When I right click on the browse window and go to 'Arrange icons by name' they appear by name but when I close the window and reopen it, it arranges back to random.
How can I fix this? Thank you so much for your help!

Open windows explorer. Choose the way you want to view your files. Then go to tools on the toolbar and choose folder options, select the view tab. Select apply to all folders. This should do it.

I create a .bat report with dir /b > filelist.txt pause The pause only stops it from immediately remaining the window. Filelist.txt is a column of filenames in the folder you ran it in. I sell off that checklist into Excel. And column B has the hot folder call. Then use column C =concatenate("ren ",A1," ",B1,"",A1) Then replica the formula down column C and sell off it right into a .bat report with a pause on the top of it. That makes a super sort of instruction manual naming the folder. you ought to objective dumping into observe and do a Convert table to text fabric then do a Convert text fabric to table and use - because of the fact the cellular separator and sell off it into column B. Hopefullly a number of that's clever. I had to apply it on a nil.5 million .wav records and separate them by ability of language.

change your view to Details and see what tab it is sorting on (look for that little arrow). It is likely that you are sorting on another field.
You will likely need to change the parent folder view (like you did above) and apply it to all sub-folders.
