Up to lately the folder order was displayed AUTOMATICALLY from A > Z: Now windows always shows the order in reverse order by default (Z > A) ... Why is this, and how can I "set" it again so that it shows automatically (not every time by hand) as described at the beginning ?!? Thanks for...

Discovered this neat tool that allows the user to copy a file name to the clipboard with a right click menu item. Clicking shift at the same time will also copy the full path. Great if you need to enter the full path to a file in a form etc. Copy filenames to the Windows clipboard with...
