    Sort by date takes long time for items to show


    I have a music folder with 1,440 files and 38 folders and I like to keep the ones I've just added at the top. When I set the folder to sort by Date, it usually takes about a minute for the folder to show fully. The hard drive is a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10. Is there anything I can do to speed it up? I don't want to put them all on an SSD (12.5GB).

    Edit: I fixed it by changing the shortcut I was using from D:\Users\x\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\Music.library-ms\ to D:\Users\x\Music\.

    could you give me more info on your pc

    A great way to do this is going to your start menu and at the search typing in dxdiag and hitting enter.

    then clicking save all information (this will save it to a .txt file) and copying that information onto here

    Thankyou :P
