Right so this has been bugging me for a while. Is there any way of changing the default 'sort by' details for all folders? I know you can choose the details by clicking 'more' and then manually setting it but that only applies for one folder. Is there a way of setting 'date modified' as a default option on every folder?

in any folder, change the sort by to be the column you want.
then in File Explorer > Folder Options > View tab > click Apply to Folders > click Yes to apply to all folders.

does that not do it for you?
