Datagrip 2025.3 Database Explorer view is not sorted alphabetically

Completed

Hi, this morning i updated to the 2025.3 version and after migrating query consoles to query files, I noticed that the data sources in the Database Explorer panel aren't sorted alphabetically.

Is this a bug or is it an expected behaviour? Is there a setting to restore the old sorting? I didn't find any.

Hi Davide App99,

Are the view options below enabled in the Database Explorer?

How does the ordering look in your Database Explorer now?

Hi Anastasia Zhukova, yep that was the right option.

I'm sure I didn't change it recently, do you know if the latest update could have changed the default behaviur?

I had the same issue today after the update yesterday.

Davide App99,

This is a consequence of the changes introduced in DBE-24645 and the related tickets. The previous ‘Sort Alphabetically’ setting was renamed to ‘Use Alphabetic Sorting Instead of Natural’ to avoid confusion, as it was actually performing a different action. We also introduced a new ‘Sort Folders and Data Sources’ option, but it is indeed disabled by default. We're currently evaluating possible improvements.

Additionally, we've added an option to manually reorder data sources and folders, which you may find helpful:
