Organize Internet Explorer Favorites in Alphabetical Order

Using the favorites option Internet Explorer is a quick and easy way to bookmark the websites you regularly visit, or find and want to visit again. When you have a list of favorites, you can organize them in alphabetical order for easy reference. Here is how to organize your favorites in alphabetical order when using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, or Internet Explorer 8.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Click the favorites menu in Microsoft IE7 or IE8. You will find this at the top of the screen on the toolbar.

  2. Step 2

    Right click any website listed. A list of options will appear.

  3. Step 3

    Click “sort by name.”

  4. Step 4

    The websites will be listed in alphabetical order. You can do this each time you add a site to your favorites.

  5. Step 5

    You can also create folders for sites like blogs, social websites, or whatever categories make sense to you. Those can be alphabetized the same way. See my other articles on how to use Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Tips & Warnings
  • Keeping your favorites organized will help you find websites easier and faster.
  • Periodically purge sites that you no longer visit to keep the list updated.

on 11/9/2009 This is exactly what I was looking for! I wouldn't have thought to right click on an individual website to organize them all! Thanks again!
