I just downloaded some compressed video files, and when I went to the Downloads folder to find them, I hit the sort by date option so they would be right at the top. But what I found was that File Explorer in Windows 10 didn't sort them properly.

Notice that in the screenshot, the folders at the top include several folders from 2014, and there's a folder from 10-21-15 a little over halfway down the list.
That tells me it is not sorting by type AND date, since there is a separation of folders within the sorting option in question. I shuffled the sort options several times, but it always went back to this order.
Has anyone else had trouble sorting items like this in Windows 10?
On a side note, I would have inserted that image in-line, but I can't figure out if there's a way to do that on this forum. Is there a simple way to do so?
