I need help with the order of numbers that contain a dash followed by a number like this one 1-1
The problem is that while in File Explorers these numbers come after the normal number, in Everything, they come before the normal number, it shouldn't be like this
how do I fix this or solve this?
problem with order with numbers n-n or 1-1, for example

Use leading zeros in your filenames or try Everything 1.5
Everything 1.5 has support for natural sort. (2 < 10)

Re: problem with order with numbers n-n or 1-1, for example
if it's already pre-activated, then something's wrong
my version is 1.5.0 1400a

Everything 1.5.0.1401a uses a new sort table that is closer to Windows Explorer.
The following characters are ignored when sorting:
