Files are listed before folders in some folders

A few weeks ago, I noticed something odd with some of my folders. When I open these folders, the files show up before the folders. This seems to be affecting different folders each day. No matter how I sort them, it doesn’t change. I don’t remember changing any settings that might have caused this. How can I fix this? I want the folders to always show up first when I open these folders.

I compared the folder display settings from a folder that doesn't have this issue, but the settings are identical.

Did you change this and forget?

Bingo! Worked. But of course, I didn't change it; I didn't even know that was a thing. No idea how it gets set that way without my doing so. Maybe one of my scripts do it. I'll never know. At least I know how to change it back. Perhaps one day I'll make a script that sets it globally for all folders, in case some folders get changed again. Thanks!

As well as via the UI, it can be changed via the Set SORTORDER command.
