to see a list of results.
- Advanced search options: In the search box, click the Down arrow to see the search options. Choose any option or combination of options to filter your results further.
- Sorting options: Click Sort options
to sort files in any of these ways:
- Last modified—See items that were recently modified by anyone (not just you). This might help you keep track of things that your collaborators have recently changed.
- Last edited by me—See the files or folder that you’ve changed.
- Last opened by me—Find files you recently opened, regardless of whether you’ve edited them. This is a great way to get back to items you were recently viewing, if you accidentally closed a tab in your browser, or if you didn’t bookmark something.
- Name—See your files in alphabetical order.
