Show Folders disappeared

HI -

Sorry if this is a basic question...but seems all of the sudden that my Tivo stopped grouping show episodes into one folder and just lists them all out in the Now Playing...is there a way to create folders or tell the Tivo to do it? Can't seem to find it in the menus.

When in Now Playing press the ENT key. Turn groups on.

Or just hit the number 2 while in the Now Playing Screen.

2 toggles the folders on and off.

I did the above, but did not get all my folders back.
One day they just disappeared.
I record a certain actor in a Wishlist auto-record and all those recordings used to reside in one folder.
Now they are spread out all over Now Playing.
I did turn groups on and that got back two shows where I had multi-episodes but not the dozens of movies I had for this wishlist.
Any ideas?

likely you set the wishlist to not autorecord - once you do that the recordings lose their grouping. This is working as designed but it is a very annoying design.
You can set the wishlist to only keep 1 at a time and set that one to Keep until I delete and it will stop any more recordings

Alternatively you could add an extra search term to the wishlist so it won't match anything.
