Bobioden -
for future reference: the
Preferences->Tweaks section has a search bar at the top of the dialogue window. A search for 'sort' finds > 10 different tweaks related to sorting in various contexts, and some of them have combinatorial impact. I acknowledge your problem was not the result of a tweak setting.
As HarryT wrote wrote 'clicking on column names' is a very common method of sorting tabular data - file managers and spreadsheets are a couple of obvious examples.
FWIW - One reason I use the
View Manager plugin is because it provides the means to specify which View (which columns, in what order) is to be used when a library is opened. As a consequence I no longer get bamboozled by what I did yesterday, deliberately or mistakenly
