Finder has locations above favorites

Running Big Sur 11.5.2 and for awhile now, the Finder side bar in a MacBook Pro has the Location section above the Favorite section. All our other Macs have it reversed: Favorites above locations.


How can I reverse the locations of Locations & Favorites?


Thanks.

To rearrange the categories in the Finder sidebar you have to press and hold the Command key first, then select whatever category and drag it to a new location. For some reason this doesn't work with the very top category, so in your case press Command and then select Favorites and drag it above Locations! Hope this helps you!
