Difference between Arranged By Categories and Current View By Category?

In the Tasks folder, does anyone know the difference between Arranged By >
Categories and Current View By Category? I ask because, in my Tasks folder,
the Arranged By Categories displays tasks grouped by categories and the
Current View By Category does not display anything.

I thought these two were the same. Both are filters, although Current View
By Category actually displays the words "Filter Applied" at the right side
of the Tasks title bar.

I apologize that this post is similar to my earlier question that I recently
posted, but I just discovered that one works and the other doesn't.
 
Sounds like you need to reset the By Category view to restore it to its original appearance after it's had some changes made to it in the UI.

The Arranged By setting dictates the grouping in the currently displayed view. It does not affect filters.

Thanks for your response.
