Files and Folders Not Alphabetizing

Hi All,

I realize this is a MUNDANE question but still need help! Whenever I save a
file or create new folder they no longer automatically go into alphabetic
sequence -- they just go to the bottom of the list. Why is this happening
and how do I get the system to start alphabetizing my files and folders
again? I have looked everywhere and can't find where to do it. It's just
easier to find everything when they're in alphabetic order.

Thank you!

Right Click | Arrange icons by | Name
After that, When you create a new file or move/copy file(s), Hit F5 (to refresh) to
resort the folder.

Then you know exactly where they are and should have no trouble finding
them.

As Ayush said, press F5 to refresh, it will re-sort. And if you leave that
folder and come back to the one you were just in, it should then be re-
sorted as well.

How do you get all of the Open and SaveAs dialogs to default to
alphabetical ordering when first opened for all applications? I find that the
right click within the box only lasts for that particular navigation, and
that files/folders are not alphabetized for new Open/SaveAs sessions.
