My Dropbox folders are now sorted based on their creation date - how can I undo this?
My dropbox folders just reorganized by year they were established. Now I have to look through multiple years to find a folder I want. How do I return it to all folders listed under my general headi...
Thank you, Nancy. It's the folders under the All Files tab. On the dropbox site itself they are in alphabetical order. But when I try to save something, like a bank statement that I want to put in the "finance" file, the folders are then all divided up by year they were created and I have to search way down years ago. Very strange since it just started happening. Nothing changed but it did coincide with my annual dropbox renewal which made me think it was some kind of an update.

Dropbox Community ModeratorHmm, I see. Have you accidentally set any kind of automation perhaps for your folders? If yes, you can remove it this way.
If that’s not the case though, feel free to send me a screenshot of what you see here, and I’ll check this further.
I found the issue. When choose how you see the folders and files - list, icon, etc it had changed to icons. I put it back to list. Then the column to the right had a check for how they are listed. It was checked by date and I switched it back to none. Problem solved! I'll never know how it changed but now its fixed. Thank you so much for your assistance.
