When I change the option: "Sorting directories" in "Configuration" -> "Display" the change does not take effect immediately,
I have to either change directory and back again, or change the sorting and change it back again - or restart TC - to have the change take effect
Before TC 8.51beta4 the sorting was updated immediately, when the option was changed - so I think this is a bug introduced back then.
Interestingly enough; If you use the cm_SwitchDirSort command, the sorting in both panels is updated immediately
[Solved] TC 9.51 - Sorting of directories are not updated immediately when changed in config.

Normally using latest TC on:
x32: WinXPx32 SP3 (very rarely nowadays).
x64: Clients/Servers - Win10/Win11 and Win2K16 to Win2K22, mainly Win10 though.

cm_RereadSource 1 or 3 - will also update the sort order after changing this option via the configuration dialog
