    How do I change my files in documents from Z-A to A-Z


    Problem in Documents, my folders USED to be sorted, as you do, from A-Z. Now they appear backwards, Z-A.
    Is there any fix for this?

    Do you see where it says "Name" ?
    It is above your folders.

    Left click on it and will reverse your list back to A-Z.
