文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}允许用户按日期^(Date)、文件^(File)大小、类型^(Type)、大小^(Size)或无对文件进行分组。但是，现在，Windows 11/10 用户报告说，他们在Downloads 文件夹^{(Downloads folder)}中的文件按Date modified分组，并且他们无法将其恢复到以前/默认显示视图。这可能是由于错误或用户首选项在Windows Update之后设置为默认值而发生的。

Windows 下载^{(Windows Downloads)}文件夹– 删除按日期^(Date)分组^{(– Remove Grouping)}和排序^(Sorting)

此视图使所有文件按日期分组并按降序显示。

按日期分组时，所有文件和文件夹都被分成用户友好的日期。例如，如果您今天下载了一个文件，它将被分组到今天^(Today)部分。上周下载的文件^(Files)将归入Last Week，依此类推。简而言之^(Simply)，您最近的文件将始终显示在顶部。

从理论上讲，这可以很容易地找到最近下载的文件。但是，“修改日期^{(Date Modified)}”分组会使文件显得更杂乱。此外，如果最近没有下载文件，查找文件可能会有点困难。例如，当文件按日期分组时，即使文件按类型排序，它们仍然按日期分组。

因此，如果新的默认日期修改^{(Date Modified)}分组给您带来更多不便，请按照以下步骤修复文件资源管理器中按日期分组的下载文件夹中的文件。

恢复“下载^(Downloads)”文件夹中按修改日期分组的文件的^{(Date Modified)}显示^(Display)视图

启动文件资源管理器^{(File Explorer)}并转到下载^(Downloads)文件夹。您可以单击“快速访问”下的“^{(Quick Access)}下载^(Downloads)”选项来执行此操作。

单击查看^(View)选项卡，然后单击分组依据^{(Group by)}下拉菜单并从列表中选择无。^(None)

文件将恢复到“下载^(Downloads)”文件夹设置的任何视图。

现在，您可能还会注意到“另存为^{(Save As)}”对话框窗口仍然继续显示按日期分组的项目。只需^(Simply)右键单击对话框中的任何空白区域，然后选择Group by None。

应用更改后，所有文件都不会排序并像以前一样。但是文件和文件夹将在几分钟后再次修改或重新启动 PC 时按日期分类。因此，要永久设置它，请按如下所述进行。

接下来，如上所述切换到组（无）。^(Group)

单击在资源管理器功能区中^(Explorer)查看^(View)> 选项 > 更改文件夹和搜索选项以显示文件夹选项^{(Folder Options)}属性。

切换到视图^(View)选项卡。

单击应用到文件夹^{(Apply to Folders )}按钮，然后单击是。^(Yes.)

单击应用^(Apply)>确定^(OK)。

就是这样，伙计们。这应该会有所帮助。^{(That’s it, folks. This should help.)}

Windows 10 Downloads folder: Remove Grouping & Sorting by Date

The File Explorer allows users to group the files by Date, File size, Type, Size, or None. However, now, Windows 11/10 users have reported that their files in Downloads folder are grouped by Date modified, and they have been unable to restore it to the previous/default display view. This can happen due to a bug or if the user preference was set to default after Windows Update.

Windows Downloads folder – Remove Grouping & Sorting by Date

This view makes it so that all the files are grouped by date and appear in descending order.

When grouped by date, all the files and folders are separated into user-friendly dates. For example, if you downloaded a file today, it will be grouped under the Today section. Files downloaded last week will be grouped under Last Week, and so on. Simply put, your most recent files will always appear on top.

In theory, this makes it easy to find the recently downloaded files. However, the Date Modified grouping makes the files appear more cluttered. Moreover, finding files can be a bit harder if they are not recently downloaded. For example, when files are grouped by date, even though the files are sorted by types, they are still grouped by dates.

So, if the new default, Date Modified grouping is more of an inconvenience for you, then follow the below steps to fix files in the downloads folder grouped by date in file explorer.

Restore Display view for files grouped by Date Modified in the Downloads folder

Launch File Explorer and go to the Downloads folder. You can click on the Downloads option under Quick Access to do this.

Click the View tab, then click on the Group by drop-down menu and select None from the list.

The files will be restored to whatever view the Downloads folder is set to.

Now, you might also notice the Save As dialogue window still keeps displaying the items grouped by date. Simply right-click any empty area within the dialog box and select Group by None.

Once you have applied the changes, all files are not sorted and become as before. But the files and folders will be categorized by dates modified again minutes later or on restart of PC. So to set it permanently, proceed as outlined below.

Next, switch to Group (none) as described above.

Click on View in Explorer ribbon > Options > Change folder and search options to bring up the Folder Options properties.

Switch to the View tab.

Click Apply to Folders button, followed by Yes.

Click Apply > OK.

That’s it, folks. This should help.
