How To Sort Folders The Same Way As Files In Total Commander


Posted by Artem Russakovskii on October 11th, 2008 in My Favorites, Stuff

For the longest time I wanted to sort folders (aka directories) in Total Commander but it just wouldn’t. The sort rules only applied to files and I never took the time to figure it out. Well, I found the option now, which I want to share. I can finally see what movies, ahem, I mean presentations, I downloaded last.

The option is right there, in the middle, Sorting Directories. The default is Always by name. Change it to Like files (also by time) and you’re done.

    great – likewise it has been bugging me for ages but never could track down the solution – even so long after your original post! Thanks for keeping the archives!

    Thanks! Indeed. Amazing how Ghisler managed to hide such an important feature in the UI :)
