Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I can sort file as descending or ascending whenever I was on "list view" option. But somehow when I change it to icon, the order of the file change back to as "date created" instead of maintain as what I chose while I was on "list view" option. Does any other way(s) to maintain the order of the file while changing the view option?

In that open Finder icon view window, press ⌘+J to open the View options panel. Mine is set to the following:
This organizes the icons alphabetically with folders first, and then files. There is no concept of ascending/descending in Finder's icon view. Press ⌘+J to dismiss that View options panel.

Thank you. To quote you "There is no concept of ascending/descending in Finder's icon view." - this is the answer I was looking for. In conclusion, there's no other ways to sort files in ascending/descending manner and I should get used to it that it will only sort files by the latest one first accordingly.
You are welcome.
The other thing that I do in my Downloads folder is to show the last downloaded file in the upper-left corner of the Finder Window's icon view using:
Sort File
