Recycle bin sort order keeps going back to name

K

I sort by date, but every so often the recycle bin keeps going back to
sorting by name. At least when the system is turned off/on and sometimes
even while it is running. I have the option to Remember each folder's view
settings on, and as far as I can tell the other folders don't have this
problem, it is only the recycle bin that keeps resetting the view by itself.

You asked this couple of weeks ago ?

Why is this a "big deal"? The recycle bin is a garbage can...are you using it as a storage bin? It matters not whether it is sorted or not in most cases.

If you need to "occasionally" have it sorted then change the view setting for that one time.

Pedantry rules supreme in your house apparently.

In Recycle Bin go to Tools/Folder Options/view and select Apply to All Folders -- if
that's what you want. I'm not sure that individual folders remember their settings.

Nobody said it was a big deal, so thanks for completely failing to address
the question. I also find it humorous that one who goes out of his way to
tell other users what should and should not be important ways to use their
own computer is the same person accusing them of being pedantic.

Does being a huge douchebag rule supreme in your house, or is it just the
way you choose to act on the internet? Thanks for posting in HTML btw,
clueless in Seattle.
