Files out of whack
      #27016 - 05/06/06 08:20 AM

Lately, whenever I go to save a file, my hard drive files come up out of alphabetical order. I right click and click on arrange by name and save my file. The next time I go to save again, they are again out of order. This is the first time I have ever experienced this. Very annoying. Any ideas?

Lots of missing information in your post. If I guess wrong, you may need to provide a little more operating system/application information so we can help you.

If I fill in the blanks the most commonly occurring way I can think of, then this would mean you are running on a Windows O/S of some flavor and have created a new microsoft document and now you would like like to savae that file.

On the save menu, click on the "view" icon (where you would choose view list, details, icons etc.) and select "arrange icons" and choose "name."

If you are doing something on your windows explore tool, click on the "view" pull down menu and look for "arrange icons"

Basically, whatever application you are using, that's what you are looking for - "arrange icons" Probably it got reset on a misclick at some point.

Good luck. If this is not it, give us more info.

When you have exhausted all possibilities, remember this - you haven't.

If I find a picture I like on the web and want to save it. I right click and select save picture as. When I select my C drive, all of the folders are out of order. I right click and select arrange icons by name and they are in order. Five minutes later I save another picture and they ar back out of order. It only happens when I am saving pix, files, etc. If I go to My Computer they are always in order.
