Folders ~ Arrange By Name ~ Annoyance!

I recently had to change the default view from Name to Size when opening a
file via a programme and is now stuck like it with every programme I use to
open or save a file from. How do I get the ordering back to name?

Please note that when viewing folders in Windows this isn't a problem, it is
just when opening or saving via a programme that they are all listed by
size.

It's very annoying as I keep having to reorder before I can open anything as
I can't find it!

Thanks,
Sarah

In the file open dialog set it to sort by name, then CTRL + click the X
to close it. That should save the setting.
