Default Explorer "Details" view: The commas are gone

For no reason that I can determine, the commas in all the numbers in the
"Size" column of my Explorer windows are gone. Just disappeared.

For example, a file whose size used to appear as "1,234,567" would now
read "1234567."

I have no idea what caused this, and I know it's a most trivial annoyance,
but if anyone can suggest a registry change or other measure that could
bring my commas back, I'd be ever so grateful.

Open Control Panel, "Regional and Language settings", "Customize" and
configure "Digit Grouping" option accordingly.
