Re-sort Favorites, All In One Go

Re-sort Favorites, All In One Go

     Hi Fred, I just found a tip in the latest printed version of
     the UK publication PC Advisor ( http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk  )
     solving a problem I have had for years. The tip may interest
     your readers.
    
     The tip tells how to "sort Internet Explorer Favorites in one
     go", rather than "organizing the IE Favorites menu by right-
     clicking an item and selecting Sort by Name.... The problem
     with this technique," the tip states, "is that you must repeat
     it for each submenu, and that gets kind of dull after a while."
     The proposed solution is to edit the key in the Registry called
    
Hkey_Current_User\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Favorites
     by deleting the Order value there. I tried it and after exiting
     Regedit and starting Internet Explorer, my Favorites get sorted
     automatically in alphabetical order, just as I like it. Before
     deleting the Order value, I exported a backup of the key, just
     in case I would change my mind later.
