Right click:"Arrange Icons by date" Question

[Guest vm12]

In windows Explorer you can add

 

'Date Created' column by going to View/choose column/date created.

 

Arranging by Date created will always sort the files date and time order,

so that the earliest file appears first and the latest file appears last;

 

 

You can also arrange files in date order by

 

right clicking on a blank space in the folder and selecting

 

Arrange Icons 'By Date'

 

Also note: that is the same function that is available when you want to

select files in WMP or any other application that calls on the "open

folder"

or "open files" dialogue box.

 

 

Arrange Icons 'By Date' acts differently to sort files by date created!

 

The results are not consistent ie some older files will appear before some

newer files.

I am not sure, but I think it sorts by 'date modified'

 

Is there way to change this default setting to 'Date created'

in the registry etc

Thanks
