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) ?

Numeric value (of a string portion consisting of all digits) is the same
no matter how many leading zeroes you add. Leading zeroes are not
significant characters. 4 = 04 = 004 = 0004 = 00004 = 000004 = 0000004.
