How to sort by Drive K first

Post by sloanwall »

I have a several drive attached including Drive F, Drive K, and Drive H in addition to default Drive C. Is there any way to sort/prioritize the results so that it shows Drive K files/folders first and then everything else below that. I tried creating a filter with Drive K | Drive C and others in there but even then sorting overtakes it. I can sort and temporarily change to show Drive K but is there any permanent way of prioritizing certain drives first?

I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

Currently, Everything cannot do this efficiently.

It can be done by including the following in your search:

Code: Select all

<<k: a:=1> | <a:=0>> sort:a-descending;date-modified
Adjust date-modified to your normal sort.
Files on the K: drive are shown first.

Thanks a lot for the feedback. It would be great to see sorting options introduced in a future update — specifically
the ability to sort drive order and to prioritize folders above files when sorting.
