F5F Stay Refreshed Software Operating Systems Can you tell me how to pick a different group-by setting so that it applies to every window when I open File Explorer?

Hey, how do I turn off the automatic grouping by date in File Explorer on my Windows 11? I want it set to nothing. I can change it, but after a reboot or power outage, it comes back to "by date." What should I try next?
