Advanced sort issue?

Post by JaegerFox »

I don't know if this is really a problem, but recently I saw that this useful function was added but the bad thing is that if I choose sortby last acceded and path I don't get the result I expect to have.

actual result: the folders are shown first sorted by the last accessed folder (it depends on how you have configured this option in Windows, in my case I disable this option because when extracting a zip file it keeps the creation and modification dates intact and the accessed is the reference date of when that file/folder was extracted).

But the desired result: it is that it shows the files ordered by hierarchy for example.

C:/Program files/Foo/bar - file 2025/01/01
C:/Program files/Foo/bar - file2 2024/12/01
C:/Program Files/Foo/bar2 latest accesed files
C:/Windows/foo/bar latest accessed files
D:/Foo/bar latest accessed files

I mean if you scroll through the results you will notice that the files are sorted as I want them to be but the folders are shown first.
also the “mixed folder/files” option has no use in this case
