After a computer crash, I had to load Thunderbird (v31.3.0) back into my machine running Windows 8.1, and I successfully imported my address book back up file into Thunderbird (v31.3.0). My problem is that I don't see an option to sort the address book by "Last" name, which was available with the version of Thunderbird I had before the crash. How can I get the address book to sort by "Last" name?

Chosen solution

In 'Address Book' Select address book 'View' > 'Show name as' > 'Last/First'

The you can sort by Name. Either click on 'Name' column header to change sort order, If reversed, then click on 'Name' column header again to reverse the order.

Or 'View' > 'Sort By' > choose 'Name' and 'Ascending'
