File Explorer sorts file names in numerical order and not literally by default in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
When numerical sorting is enabled, File Explorer will sort file names by increasing number value (for example, 3 < 22 < 111).
When numerical sorting is disabled, File Explorer will sort file names by each digit in a file name (for example, 111 < 22 < 3).
This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable numerical sorting in File Explorer for all users in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
