Sorting by name, folders and files all together

Hi,
When we select "sort by name" or "modification date", folders and different
file types are sorted in their groups. How can I sort all the file types and
folders together?
Thanks a lot,
Regards.

Hi Jon,
Thanks a lot for the help. Actually that option is already unchecked, and I
tried every combination, but they are listed seperately again :(

That is only possible if you arrange them manually (moving every thing
around by mouse).

Re: Sorting by name, folders and files all together

Hi Ayush,
Thanks for the help, but I had thousands of files, I can not move manually :(
Anyway thanks for the help, I'll try to find different solutions, and I hope
Microsoft will fix this next time :)
Regards.
