I don't really care if folders are on the top or bottom, so how can I sort them together?
Like "folder1->file1->file2->folder2".

That has a technical reason. Everything 1.4 keeps files and folders separate internally, which would make sorting them together problematic (read: very slow ).

In the upcoming major version, Everything 1.5, files and folders can be mixed when sorting.
If you want to try Everything 1.5 alpha (which is quite stable and mature already): link
