| 192995 | 2003-11-18 20:54:00 | I’m new to Windows XP, having lived happily with ’98 for some years. If I go into ‘My Computer’ and activate ‘Folders’ I get something akin to ‘Explorer’ in Win 98. BUT I want the folders at the top of the right-hand pane then a listing by date of all the files, with the newest at the top. That’s the norm in Win 98, but in XP if I click on ‘Date Modified’ I either get the folders at the top and the file listing below it in ‘oldest-at-the-top’ order or I get the newest files at the top and the folders way down at the bottom of the listing. Is there a way I can get what I used to have in Win 98? |
