Any chance to implement sort options like in WinSCP?

Could you please tell us what sort options the other program has? And what exactly you are missing?

I would like to sort files and folders by date.

Just click the button at the top of that category (all the category buttons in Windows Programs are actually clickable buttons) and it will sort it by date, click the Name for Alpha, click type for extension types, etc. You can do that with any of the columns in the window of your file listings.

You're quite welcome, and it's really funny/strange how very many people don't realize those are actually buttons that reorder. That's in any Windows window for the most part. Very few won't do that, and if they don't it's usually because the program didn't get coded correctly for windows usage. Give it a try even in a normal Windows Explorer window, you'll see how nice and easy it is to see what's the oldest, newest, first letter, closer to the last letter, etc. just by reordering any of the columns.

Enjoy and glad it was an easy fix for ya :)
