File view sorting

I have files on as SD card mostly in the correct order for an LCD picture
frame. When I view the card in windows; it sorts the files so they are in a
different order than on the card. I need to move a single file on the card.
How can I get windows to show me the same file order as on the card (no
sorting)?

Re: File view sorting


Click on the column header you wish to sort by. Click again to toggle
between ascending and descending.

Hi C. Heaven,

This tutorial will show you how to change the sort order for the files. However, since this is an external device, your settings will be lost evert time it is disconnected from the computer.

Column - Customize

Hope this helps,
