My subfolders in the new outlook seem to be sorted by date of change/creation. How can I sort them in alphabetical order?

Hi Jane,

Can you still revert to 'old' Outlook? If so, temporarily revert to old Outlook, and re-sort the sub folders A-Z using the right click.

Stay in old Outlook for the day, shut down and then reboot in the morning.

Return to new Outlook and hopefully your sub folders have replicated the folder structure from old Outlook.

I have no idea how or why, nor am I suggesting this is a technical solution, just highlighting that this somehow worked for me.

Ditto, I'm just a frustrated Outlook user.

Go into 'Folder Pane' menu item and select 'Sort Folders'. It allows you to sort A-Z.

Hi Elana - that solution sorts all Outlook folders in A-Z, however the question posed relates to sub-folders within a created new folder.

If you've moved folders around, but want to return them to alphabetical order, go to View and select Folder pane > Order folders A to Z. Tip: To return to your custom order, re-select Custom folder order from the Folder pane dropdown.
