Change Windows 7 Sort Order from 1,10,11 to 1,2,3

[rive22]

I remember this from the past but I don't remember how to fix it. I did some searching online but I don't know what this is called. I found one reg fix but it didn't work. Anybody have the correct registry fix for this?

My files are sorting as so;
1,
11,
12,
13--->19,
2,
20,
21--->29,
3,
30,
etc

I want regular ascending.

Sort by name should sort 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., 11, 12, ...

If it doesn't, then there's something else wrong.

Not sure what is causing it, it's a fresh install from a week ago

Change 1 to 01 and 2 to 02, etc.

Is this in Windows Explorer or a 3rd-party program? Are those the actual filenames, or are they (for example) text1, text2, text11, etc.?
