Window Explorer shows only Arrange by Author


When I browse to Libraries > Documents the "Arrange by:" dropdown at the top right of the selected folder pane shows only "Arrange by: Author". All the other options e.g. Date Modified, Tag, Type, Name are disabled.


I would rather just view files by their name.


How can I enable this and other "Arrange by" options?


Answer



In the end I finally managed to fix this by removing the existing Libraries > Documents and creating a new one using the Shell Library Command Line (ShLib.exe)


@echo off
c:
cd
shlib create "%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\Documents.library-ms"
shlib add "%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\Documents.library-ms" %HOMESHARE%
pause
