Hey guys, I downloaded some file off the cyberspace on 2 days [Friday and yesterday] all into 1 binder. At present I would like to separate the files downloaded for each day and then I choose "date received" from the 'sort by' option in explorer just I am not seeing whatsoever results for that, any ideas please?

Why are y'all non using the "engagement modified" column for sort order that shows up in File Explorer by default. Unless you've been modifying the files in some way since downloading them the appointment modified should be the engagement-time their respective downloads completed.
If this is going to be a need going forward, and the files in question will be tweaked on many occasions subsequently conquering, consider using engagement-time as a part of their names, e.g., 2016-04-24_0031_Rest_of_File_Name.

When you add new columns to the Explorer window, they will be added to the correct as shown past the dark-green arrow in the screenshot below. In guild to brand the new column appear in the existing Explorer window, you must resize the other columns. To do so, point at the separator between the Proper noun and Date modified columns. When the cursor changes to "+" with double arrowheads, click and drag the separator to the left until the new column appears.

@ mystic12
Attempt this...
Open File Explorer,
Open the folder y'all've downloaded to.
From the toolbar select View > select Details.
Click the dropdown Group by and select Appointment created.
Results will be displayed Before this month and Before this year.
Hope this helps!

Please see fastened screenshot, I am non seeing a 'appointment modified ' pick in explorer. http://imgur.com/k9DJNXd
I am non seeing how file explorer will show the files which were downloaded separately on Friday and sabbatum?
Also before anyone hither should bring up any copyright bug, traxsource is a paid music subscription service with a legal section in the TOS which states their artists are paid for their music so no file here is from youtube or whatsoever other 'gratis' net download.

Well, you were non explicit about being in music folders, which take different display defaults. As you tin can see from your own screen shot, there is no bodily data in "date received" and, thus, you tin't sort on information technology.
Simply move you lot mouse anywhere in the title row and right click. Y'all will be presented with the columns that you can choose to display in relation to those files. Uncheck "engagement received" and bank check "date modified." Once engagement modified is showing you can sort it in ascending or descending order only similar whatever other column. If this isn't the sort order you'd prefer on a permanent basis so click back on the column on which y'all wish to sort and make sure that you lot've got the ascending/descending arrow going the direction that y'all want it.

Well, you were not explicit well-nigh being in music folders, which have different brandish defaults.
Simply move y'all mouse anywhere in the title row and right click.
lamentable I did not call back it would make a difference in which folder a file would be located, Information technology'southward not in any default binder of the pc or traxsource, I simply created a new folder on the pc to send the files to.
Sorry I am not understanding what you hateful by "title row"?

In the case of your screen shot the title row/heading row contains: Name, #, Title, Contributing artists, Album . . .
There are differences in what the title/heading row defaults are based upon the type of files stored in certain libraries. Media libraries get their ain defaults which are quite dissimilar than if you lot open up File Explorer and choose to explore your C: drive, for instance. I have yet to come across a File Explorer default for the header row on "normal" file folders be anything other than: Name, Engagement Modified, Type, Size. If y'all want anything other than that, or to eliminate any of the things displayed by default, yous have to right click on the header row and select/deselect to suit your wishes (and Proper noun must always exist shown). If yours is showing something other than the previously mentioned four fields for a typical (read: not media files) binder on your system then someone customized it.

mystic12, it's not your doing that the folder is showing these columns. Windows detects what kind of files you lot have in the folder and automatically "optimizes" the folder to arrange. If you change the folder to "General Items" you volition see the default columns.

Yes, and you see blue checkboxes, checked, next to each and every column that's shown in your header row with the exception of "Proper noun", which must exist shown.
Click on "Appointment Received" to uncheck it since it's a data-gratuitous column and check the box next to Date Modified.
Y'all volition now have "Date Modified" showing where "Date Received" had been.
It appears, based on the little "descending chevron" that's on display in your "Title" cavalcade that you are currently sorting on that column in descending order (Z to A). If you click on whatsoever other column in the header row that becomes the sort column, whether it'southward ascending or descending by default depends on the column. 1 need only click on the ascending chevron to toggle to descending order or vice versa.
All you will practise to find files downloaded in the contempo past is to click on the "Date Modified" column once y'all're displaying information technology and sort it in descending order and then that the newest files (or folders, if you lot've got those, too - and they'll appear above the files) evidence offset.

mystic12, it's not your doing that the binder is showing these columns. Windows detects what kind of files yous have in the folder and automatically "optimizes" the binder to suit. If you change the folder to "Full general Items" you will see the default columns.
The problem beingness that one would not by and large want "Full general file" defaults on Media files. It'due south far easier to right click on your header row and tweak to get what you desire and get rid of what you don't.

The betoken I was trying to make is Windows automatically "optimizes" the folder based on the type of files in it. Of form, you lot tin can add together whichever columns you want but I was trying to explain to mystic12 that nobody "customized" the binder.
