I sort entries by Title. However, it is not kept after relaunching the app.

Before restarting the app:

After restarting the app:

Steps to Reproduce

2. Open a group with entries.
3. Click on a column header to sort by that column.
4. Lock the database and exit or just immediately exit.
5. Open the app again. Go to the same group.

Actual Behavior

Entries are not sorted.

Context

Checked the suggestion from #7686 (comment) for ~/Library/Caches/KeePassXC/keepassxc.ini as I'm on Mac. But, it is not applicable as it is not on a RAM disk.
Tried removing keepassxc.ini but that didn't help either.

Delete the cache ini and reopen keepassxc, sometimes it gets corrupted.

I have the same problem, on Ubuntu. I tried removing the cache ini, but it didn't help.

Steps I followed:

1. KeePassXC open, sort order is messed up
2. Sorted the columns
3. Made a dummy change, so the DB is saved
4. Deleted the cache ini
5. Closed & reopened KeePassXC
6. Expired entry virtual group shows
7. When leaving the virtual group, order is messed up

If I take care of the expired entries (step 6 never happens), then the order is correct. So, I'm pretty sure the problem is related to the expired entry group.

I can confirm that not showing the expired / about to expire entries works around the problem:
Tools -> Settings -> General -> disable "On database unlock, show entries that ..."

I am fixing this with my tag enhancement PR.
