Open, save as dialog window


Recommended Posts

question:

In windows explorer, i have arrange by name, show in groups. for all folders. they are in alpabetical order in explorer, from A to Z.

However, if i open a dialog window, or a save as....window, they are still sorted by Name, but backwards, from Z to A. Can someone help me with this?

Thanks

Mike

try running these in order:

regsvr32 /u comdlg32.dll

regsvr32 comdlg32.dll

then log off. that might reset it, but no guarantees...

edit: just found this in google. if the above does not work, try this:

If explorer in List mode/detail mode is z to a then open/save will be z to a, open a explorer window and change it to detail mode and make sure it is listing everything from A to Z then make that the global default and it will change how open/save dialogs does it.

This was a old problem I had as well.
