File sequencing in Exploring

Posted: 07-16-2003, 03:33 AM
XP now organizes files differently than all previous
Windows, ignoring leading zeros in filenames. Thus,
file0002 now comes before file03. Does anyone know any way
to get back to the old Windows rules of alphabetizing file
names in Exploring?

Thanks, Jim.

Hi Mark,

Change the Sort Order Back to W2K Style (Line 107)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Thanks Kelley. Spent time at your site but searched for
"Exploring" so line #107 never showed up. A most excellent
site! --mm
