When saving, how do I change the default order of my files in the pop up window which is currently reverse chronologic order?

When I want to save a file on my computer, Firefox opens a window for me to designate a location. Up until a few weeks ago, my files were listed in chronological order by file type. Now they're listed in reverse chronological order which is not convenient. This happens every time and I can't find where to change the setting.

Did you check the right-click context menu ?

You can also try to switch to list mode and click the Name column header to switch the direction.
