    Top Menu > Select "View" option

    On the Ribbon find "Folder Pane" > "Sort Folders" > "Order folders A to Z"

    Priya2024,

    On the Header Bar you will see a "View" tab...

    In the View Ribbon you will see a "Folder Pane" with a dropdown menu..

    There you will find a "Sort Folders" you have the option of A to Z or Custom.

    I prefer A to Z as it sounds you do also..

    That is not an option I can see when I do this? Any other ideas?
