Default Folder \directory view

Basic question I know, but for the life of me I cant seem
to figure this one out.

Problem; When I open windows explorer the left pane on the
window has my folders in alphabetical order A-Z, in the
right window the folders are in alphabetical order but
from Z-A.

Question; How do I change the view to A-Z Permanently, so
as every folder I enter is in alphabetical order A-Z.

Please help, driving me bananas....

Open Windows Explorer, right-click in the right pane, click Arrange Icons By Name,
from the menu that appears, to set them in alphabetical order.
Press F5.
When they are set, hold down the CTRL key while you close the Explorer window with
the X in the upper right corner.

If you keep Explorer view set to Details view, click the heading of the Name column
in the right pane, to set them in alphabetical order (They will toggle between
alphabetical and reverse alphabetical every time you click the Name heading).
Press F5.
Hold down the CTRL key while you close the Explorer window with the X in the upper
right corner.
