I've used this tool for a couple of years, and still, sub folders don't sort unless I expand one, close the program then restart it. If I then expand a different folder, all of those sub folders are unsorted (seemingly random sorting) and I have to close the tool and restart it again for that set of folders to sort properly. I'm sure I'm missing something, but I can't find it.
I have the setting 'Folder always sorted alphabetically' checked. I've tried unchecking it too, but there's no difference.
This is on an external, USB connected drive. I don't think it's happening directly on my mac hard drive (but I don't use it as much on that).
Is there any way to sort sub folders?

Re: Is there any way to sort sub folders?
Thanks for the response.
Yes MacOS 15.4
I'm not sure why but it seems to be behaving better most of the time. I did capture this before and after shot a couple of days ago, so it can still happen, but I'm not seeing it as consistently now.
(It's like when you go into the doctor and all of a sudden, your symptoms are gone
)
If it starts to happen with the previous frequency I'll let you know, but it does seem better. Maybe toggling some setting ended up correcting it. I'm not sure.
