Win98SE Folder Order Question!
Tiger-Heli:
This has been bugging me for a long time and hopefully someone on here knows.
When I open a window in File Explorer (Save in folder, unzip to folder, etc.), or select a file to open, the folders/files are always in reverse alphabetical order, i.e. Z-A.
I'm sure I messed up some setting somewhere, but don't know how to fix it.
Does anyone here know what to do?

Easy. Click the 'Name' tab and it will sort accordingly. Click it again and it does it in reverse order.
Also works for the other tabs. I always sort by 'File Type' myself.

Okay, that works in the File Explorer window itself. My problem is if I initially open a folder, or more importantly, if I am browsing for a file, saving to a different location, the window with the file names is in inverse order, and there is no sort tab.

It's not just a 98 issue... I have the exact same problem in xp...
I almost know it's some tweaking program I used to use that's at fault.
Unfortunately I've tried so many, I don't have a clue which one broke it. If anyone figues this out please post your info.
