Since the last windows update 18362.418

I have a folder "downloads" that no longer works like a regular disk folder but now like this:

How can I turn this off for this and all folders I want to see a file list when I open a folder not a broken up last used access list ?

I just could not find anything online on how to do this and I can not find anything in folder/library options that works.
All I can say here is it never did it before or if it did I sure can't remember how I turned it off.

They changed it because normal users would have a hard time finding the file they just downloaded.
