I love calibre.
Previously when I opened it it would sort my thousands of books by DATE acquired order, most recent at the top, and with the display cursor showing the most recent book.

For the last 2 years it is doing its own thing - it does not sort by date at all when you open it. If I click on the button SORT it will put them in order, but I then have to click on 'reverse order' . I then have to use the slider on the right to go all the way up to the top of the books.

I have tried fiddling with templates, plugins etc and I think I have made it worse.

Is there a step by step list of instructions I could follow to fix the problem?
