    Hi:

    Number-Sequence

    2022-11-16 and 2022-12-16 will sort after 2022-03-16, not following 2202-10-18 as it should be.

    The folder property setting is set to general, but changing it to documents does not affect the numerical sequence order.

    The sort order is by Name and Ascending

    I know this is related to something in windows, but do not know how to fix it.

    Using “.” in place of “-” has no effect on sort order.

    Any ideas on how to properly show numerical sequence?

    Thanks

      2022 is less than 2202.ย  Ergo why it’s not sorting after.ย  You sure those years are supposed to be 2202 and not 2022?

      Thanks.
