Folder File Order XP.

    Not sure how to explain this but here goes.

    In Windows Explorer (XP) I have a folder for music files & it was normally the case that when I added any new files they would appear at the end of the list of files in that folder. Then at some stage I think someone went to "View, arrange icons by name" so that now everything is ordered alphabetically.

    Now when I add a new music file it gets put into the correct alphabetical order in the list of files, when what I really want is that file to be the last in the list...

    How can I set this back to reflect that any additions will appear at the end of the list?

    That would be lovely but where is that option in XP?

    I can't see it anywhere.

    Right click the tabs (Name, Artist, album etc) and click "More", scroll down to "date modified" and then click its checkbox and click ok
