Pinned Items in Office 2016 not sorted alphabetically

Jack:

Please add your comment and vote to the following suggestion in the UserVoice forum:

· Recently Used List Sort order: Date vs Alpha https://word.uservoice.com/forums/304924-word-for-windows-desktop-application/suggestions/10137741-recently-used-list-sort-order-date-vs-alpha

MS actively monitors the uservoice forums and expect suggestions like this to be posted there.  Frankly, for the most part MS does not pay attention to what goes on in this forum.

The title says it all.  Whereas in Office 2013 pinned recent items automatically got sorted alphabetically this is no longer the case in any programme in Office 2016.  This is extremely frustrating.  Any fix?

Microsoft:

Please consider putting back the option of alphabetic sorting of pinned docs. in Office again.

I completely agree and am salon very frustrated that pinned docs are no longer available alphabetically in Office 2016.

Windows products have generally always defaulted to sorting alphabetically, allowing one to chose date sorting by date. etc. as an option.

The comment that comes after the first sentence is not helpful.

MS has created "UserVoice" sites as "Suggestion Boxes" and to accept bug reports.  There is a suggestion asking to re-instate the "real" sort order, or to give us the option.  If "enough" people vote for the suggestion, MS will consider working on it.
