TotalFinder has changed recently. I’m running on OSX 10.13.6. The arrows have disappeared to the left of the folder icons. ![Skærmbillede 2020-05-01 kl. 18.49.48](https://discuss.binaryage.com/uploads/default/original/2X/3/36e5b50c98c39d489aa7456230c2e3e004c1a5e7.jpeg) ---

I don’t think this is TotalFinder issue. Likely you have switched your file view into “Use Groups” mode. See Finder -\> View menu for view mode options. ---

Hmmm, my OSX (10.13.6) is in Danish. In _Preferences_ for _Finder_ I can’t find anything like “Use Groups” mode. ---

Ah, maybe this feature was not present in macOS 10.13. I don’t remember exactly. Alternatively you have enabled “Group by” in View options. This also disables “tree view” with disclosure triangles. ---

Should it be found under **Finder\> Preferences**? I can’t find anything called _Group by_ or _View options_ here. P.S. I have tried to change language under **System preferences** , but I do not see that has any effect. I change from Danish to English and region USA, but there is no Save button and when the machine is restarted it starts again in Danish. ---

Here are 10.15 docs, but it should be same for 10.13: > **[Change options for Icon, List, Column or Gallery view in the Finder on Mac](https://support.apple.com/en-ie/guide/mac-help/mchldaafb302/10.15/mac/10.15)** > > In the Finder on your Mac, change options such as label text, icon or thumbnail sizes and more for each view — Icon, List, Column and Gallery. Btw. No need to restart machine. After changing language, you can Force-quit Finder.app via CMD+OPT+ESC. And it will relaunch with new language (if set properly). ---

Aha! I just discovered something I hadn’t noticed before: It only occurs on _one_ particular USB hard drive. I have four USB hard drives and of course the internal hard drive, but here the arrows appear as expected. ---

AFAIK, this setting is stored in .DS\_Store files and can be set per-folder
