Hi Ronan,
No, you are missing the point of the question or rather not seeing it for what
it is. Tim's update or reconfig done by someone else who changed the folder
properties in explorer to show a different view. So that one has to go into the
folder properties in explorer and change the view properties to none rather
than day/week. This is similar to when different people set up outlook and
either by design or error set up the view incorrectly. I have done this myself
with outlook and spent hours trying to correct it. I still have a email from
The God of I.T. god rest him Paul Trayner explaining how to set up views in
outlook.

Hi Tim,
I think I may be on an older version of Windows 10.
In my version I go into File Explorer with Windows E. I choose a drive by
entering alt d and entering the letter . I then press shift F10 to get the
context menu which has sort by options .

10
Hi,
My work laptop has been upgraded to a more recent Windows 10 version.
However, now when in Windows Explorer the items are sorted by day
and week etc.
I want to return to the sorting of the items by date but not divided
into day / week / monthand so on.
Anybody know how I can do this?
Thanks,
Tim
