Default filebrowser sorting on name -- doesn't quite do it ...

Hello All,

Just the other day I re-noticed that the filebrowser (file explorer) doesn't
quite display the filenames in ASCI order. Example:

....
4FB99E33.DAT
4FCD66DC.DAT
04FD1641.DAT
....

It looks like Windows sorting-mechanism simply ignores the leading Zero ....

Question: Is there a setting with which that last filename is again placed
(in this example) at the top (sorts in simple alphabetical/ASCII order) ?


I'm not that hexadecimal knowledgeable/competent, but could that be "oh
four" rather than "zero four"?
