Sorting Files ad Folder DO NOT SORT FOLDERS

Post by *kalkzone »

Hi,
i'm using TC for private.

We all do a lot of files these days (convert our videos, sort and organize downlods etc.)

Sometimes "we simply forget" where a file ist stored, AND we search for it.

The attribute of the "changed folder"exists.

BUT when sorting "by change date" for example ONLY files are sorted. NOT the FOLDERS:

Enable "Configuration -> Options... -> Display":
Sorting directories
(_) Always by name (x) Like files (also by time)


ghisler(Author) wrote: 2016-12-08, 22:36 UTC By default, directories are sorted by name. However, it can be changed in Configuration - Options - Display - Like files (also by time).
If you need to change this multiple times, you may create a button in the button bar with the command cm_SwitchDirSort .


Solved?

First result in Google search "total commander sort folders time" would have provided the answer.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

The hint was,

that folders are not sorted "the intuitive way" as files are

using the "descriptors" above the entries (sorry for my english)
