Yup, it's REALLY annoying, and as you say: Every time you fix it, after some time, it reverts to date order.
I've Googled a lot but not found any lasting solution to it...

Your Google result is the generic response from EVERYBODY who has tried to solve this.
It works for some, but not for everybody...

I did give it a try some years ago, but I really had no need of its features.

Is "not annoy the crap out of me" not a desirable feature...? 
(seriously, I'm in the same boat...I'd rather have a working version of Explorer)

It does work. It just has this undocumented/hidden feature on downloads. 
|
|
|
|
|
If the "feature" comes back after disabling it, then I'd make the argument that perhaps no, it's not fully working as intended...

A bit like Windows 10 Updates, then...

Dunno, you would need to take that up with Microsoft. I am just reporting what I found.

I am giving an answer without looking at the link that accompanies a purported solution. The reason is that after a download, the directory controls have no focus because nothing is selected (nothing is selecting them either). So the raw order prevails until a control selection is made.
Different behavior than previous versions? I don't know. Perhaps the group was highlighted?
Did I get it?

Common, it's not that far, you can even see it from any point in the US

Which is how I know it's closer to us than California is because you can't see California from where I am at.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

No - not out of jurisdiction.
As first to set foot there, they own it.
Anyone who objects? Well they should have tried harder to get there first.

The Outer Space treaty of 1967, to which the US is a signatory, says otherwise:
Quote: outer space is not subject to national appropriation by claim of sovereignty, by means of use or occupation, or by any other means;
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

You must have lost your copy of the Outer Space treaty of 1967. Among other things, the signatories (which include the US) agree that:
Quote: outer space is not subject to national appropriation by claim of sovereignty, by means of use or occupation, or by any other means;
Therefore the US has no jurisdiction on the Moon or any other celestial body.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
