The options I have for sorting on the third column is Kind, Extension, Size and Shared With.
I don't have a "Members" option

- Rich8 years agoSuper User III just click the "Name" header and it sorts back to folders on top, then files. This is for both the new interface (which shows "Members") and the old, preferred, interface (which shows "Shared with").
