Sorting problems

Hello to all,

Recently, XYplorer started sorting files in random order even though it is set to ascending. When I rename a file, the sorting switches to ascending, but as soon as I perform another action it goes back to random.

Even if I configure everything exactly the way I want and set this view as the default, the problem returns the next time I visit the folder. The only way the sorting behaves correctly is when I save the folder view; it does not work properly with the default view.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

64-bit version - 28.10.0300
100 Zoom - Windows 11

Looks like you defined random sorting with your default folder view? If that's the case just redefine or delete the default folder view.

It *might* also be caused by a bug that's just been fixed. Try v28.10.0303 once it's uploaded.

Hello Admin,

I’ll wait for the new update, as I’m still experiencing the issue. There doesn’t seem to be a clear pattern in the sorting behavior. When I sort by name, the tags are not sorted correctly, and when I sort by tags, the names aren’t either. I’ll check back after the update to see if it has resolved the issue. Thanks in any case for your replies.
