Solved Sorting Favorites, a nagging little issue

When I go to START - FAVORITES the individual sites and subfolders appear in one list alphabetically. When I go START and right click on FAVORITES to open it in a window, the folders appear first alphabetically and the individual sites next on the list. The same thing happens when I have a site open and go to FAVORITES from the menu bar. The list is sorted first by folders and then by individual sites. I would prefer to see them listed as the second and third examples show but I cannot get the first one to sort that way. Pretty picky I know, but it is Wednesday after all.

Hallo adkr, you can open your Favorites folder then right click in an empty space and a number of sorting options will become available.
Probably the easiest option for what you want is to just drag them to where you want.

Hope this is of some help

Thanks for the idea. I followed your suggestion. However the drop down menu on an open web page did not change. This menu continues to sort only by name and not folders first, files second.

I've had some luck by opening Favorites, right-clicking on the first folder, and selecting: Sort by Name. Then close Favorites and re-open it. The folders should then be sorted alphabetically and appear first.
