Hi Richard,

Above the auto arrange (in the view menu) are only the three different modes
for displaying icons (classic, medium, large) and clicking again on classic
doens't remove it. Is this what you meant?

When I log in (or refresh), it sorts by name, but when I right click and
choose sort by, nothing is selected.
