Favorites -- any way to alphabetically sort all folders at one time?

[John Blaustein]

Hi,

Is there a way to alphabetically sort all items in all folders in Favorites
at once? I know about right-clicking and selecting Sort by Name, but that
only seems to work for one folder at a time.

I had thought TweakUI would do that, but I downloaded it to find it doesn't.

Running XP Home, IE/OE 6 -- all updates applied.

Thanks!

right-click one of the favorites and select sort by name.

Right-click>Sort by Name only works on the current folder. If Favorites has
multiple folders, you have to go to each individual folder and right-click
within each one. I have dozens of folders within my Favorites and would
like to sort all at once.

There is a very simple way to sort all folders.

Download the program Menurites from http://www.johnsult.com it sorts your
favorites and your start menu as well.

Good luck!

Delete the whole lot by removing the entries in the Registry under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Favorites

have found that by selecting the LAST item in the list, all of the items are sorted.
