You can sort the files and folders in your Dropbox account by name, modified date, size, type, and extension. To do so, go to the All files page on dropbox.com or open the Dropbox desktop app, click the column header you’d like to sort by, and choose Ascending or Descending.
Note: Only files can be sorted by size. Learn how to calculate the size of a folder.
