Windows: Show in Groups

Most of us know that icons in Windows Explorer can be arranged according to size, name, file type, etc. Windows Explorer offers another option for arranging icons that can be helpful for quickly locating files. To access this option, select 'View->Details' to show files with details, then select 'View->Arrange icons by->Show in Groups'. Clicking the header of each detail column controls which property is used to group the options. For example, clicking the 'Size' header groups icons into groups such as 'Tiny', 'Small', 'Large', or 'Huge'. Clicking on the 'Date Modified' header groups icons according to modification date with groups such as 'Today', 'Yesterday', 'One Week Ago' etc. Just another way to find those files more quickly and intuitively.
