Favorites folder

I have spent some time on www, help and support, and windows explorer to
find this:

Once I get the Favorites folder sorted from the menu toolbar, is there some
way to keep them in that order? It would seem that technology is so
sophisticated that we should be able to choose between "most recently used"
and "strict alphabetical."

I did a web search with this search term: maintain Favorites in
alphabetical order. There were lots of helpful hits and this is the
information I found:

"By default, IE lists Favorites in the order that you add them. To make
items easy to locate, you can reorganize the list alphabetically or in
any other order that you prefer.

To sort Favorites in alphabetical order, open the Favorites menu,
right-click any item in the list, and click Sort By Name. IE lists all
folders in alphabetical order first, followed by the individual
bookmarks in the main Favorites folder. Unfortunately, as you add items,
IE places them at the end of the list. You must repeat the Sort By Name
selection to alphabetize your Favorites list again."

That was from PCToday.com.

Thank you Leonard Grey. I knew there had to be a way to do that. So simple.
I thank you.
