I want to sort many many files in a folder by creation date/time and then group them by dates

First one is okay to get in Windows 10 but when I group them, Windows 10 only groups them in like "A long time ago"

Can you please suggest some settings in W10 itself or some other software which can group files in sub-groups?

When you say you want to group them, do you mean actually move them to different locations or just change the view they show up with.

To actually move them around by date this is what scripting is for. VBscript and such, would need to write a script to select files based on the date you select, say "select all files from 2016" then you can do a file command to move or copy those files to where you want them. If you do a sort by date in Windows you can then also just select the files you want and do whatever with them, move them to their own folders for example.
