There's more than one way, but perhaps the easiest is to click on
the header of the column you want to sort on. Click it a second
time to reverse the sort from ascending to descending, or vice
versa.

Hi

Try using the 'Type' column. If it isn't visible, right click at the top of
the columns and then select 'Type'.
