How to change the sort order of a specific folder in Nautilus
By John Campbell •
I want all the files in my Downloads folder to be sorted by modification date, but all other folders, and files in other partitions to be sorted by name. How can I do that?
Edit: I want Nautilus to remember these orders for each folder.

Go in Downloads, click on View Options and select By Modification Date:
In other folders, do the same thing, but select By Name. Nautilus seems to remember this selection/sort order for each directory (I use GNOME nautilus 3.8.2).
