Figure 2-15. To group the icons in a window, use the “Group by” drop-down menu in the Ribbon on
the View tab. (If the window isn’t especially wide, then you might see only the icon for the menu, not
the actual words “Group by.”)

You can also find the “Group by” menu by right-clicking a blank spot in the window. Use the
shortcut menu that results; that way, you don’t need the Ribbon.

Don’t forget that you can flip the sorting order of your groups. Reopen that

shortcut menu and the “Group by” submenu, and specify Ascending or
Descending.

Filtering

Filtering, a feature available only in Details view, means hiding. When you
turn on filtering, a bunch of the icons in a window disappear, which can
make filtering a sore subject for novices.
