Hi Team,
version:
1.5.0.1400a.x64
scenario:
the sample folder name in Chinese word/character with the pinyin(which translates Chinese characters into the Roman alphabet) as beneath:
安: an
帮: bang
川: chuan
while sorting in Everything, as the attached, the order is an->chuan->bang;
question:
why not as an->bang->chuan?
a->b->c?
expectation:
have/know the right logic here.

Everything cannot sort natively by pinyin.
Everything sorting is language neutral.
Everything sorts by a modified Unicode Collation Algorithm.
To sort by pinyin, include the following in your search:
I will consider locale sorting for a future release of Everything.
