Explorer filename sorting problem - NoStrCmpLogical already present
Hello All,
My file explorer seems to have trouble sorting filenames in an intuitive way. Just look at the below (listing generated using "dir /one 60.*", but the same order appears in Explorer) 60.00.00.32.dds 60.00.00.32.msh 60.00.00.32.nif 60.00.32.32.dds 60.00.-32.32.dds 60.00.32.32.msh 60.00.-32.32.msh 60.00.32.32.nif 60.00.-32.32.nif I would expect the "60.00.-30.*" entries to come first, followed by the "60.00.00.*" and "60.00.32.*" groups. Some time ago (years probably :-) ) I've added the NoStrCmpLogical setting, and thought that it was fixed. But apperantly no such luck. Does anyone know what is going on here -- or better yet, how to fix it ? Regards, Rudy Wieser |

JJ,
NoStrCmpLogical is a policy setting for (Windows) Explorer only. Than is doubly remarkable that *both* show the same list .... CMD is never affected and will always use binary compare for sorting. Please, don't do that. You can see for yourself that it doesn't appear to do so. :-( https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/319827 That page seems to have become outdated, as I was met with the (in)famous "Try searching for what you need. This page doesn't exist." error message. Regards, Rudy Wieser -- Origional message: JJ schreef in berichtnieuws ...
