If the Projected View command creates a Top view of your part below the Front view instead of above it, you are probably experiencing 1st Angle Projection instead of 3rd Angle Projection which is much more common in the USA.
This setting is one of the Sheet Properties. To change it, right-click on the drawing sheet and choose Properties... You will then see a radio button choice where you can switch from 1st Angle Projection to 3rd Angle Projection.
You should now use Save As to save a corrected version of your Drawing Template (see other tech tip above), since the 3rd Angle Projection setting depends on the settings of the Drawing Template for new drawing files.
