    Out of nowhere today, notepad decides that the save folder view must be "grouped" like the Windows Download folder with the stupid fucking date sorting and grouping.

    What a stupid idea.

    That won't fix it, although it's superior to notepad in every way.

    If you frequently download and save files to different locations, you
    might run into it if the last d/l folder was downloads and you select a folder on a file share. For me it happens when I get in a hurry using a touchpad vs mouse.


    i think there might be a firefox addon that can bind shortcuts to
    specific location saves or like provide a dropdown of custom
    added locations.
