I have a strange problem that only seems to be happening on one PC.
The problem is that in some applications (not many*), when the 'Select
Files' dialog window opens, the files within folders are not sorted
alphabetically - instead they are sorted in the order they were saved
into those folders.
*I'm guessing it only happens in applications that don't use the
standard Windows dialog box.
However the same thing happens when doing a "dir" using the Command
Prompt. On all other PC's I've tried, the "dir" command automatically
sorts by name. On this particular PC, the files are sorted in the order
the files were saved into the folder.
Is there some setting somewhere that is controlling this?
Thanks,
Andrew
BTW I am using XP SP2.
