As shown in the screenshot above, when the sort method is set to Natural, files should be sorted in the order 5 → 6 → 6.5, but there is an issue where sorting becomes incorrect when Korean characters are attached. This issue occurs regardless of whether "Sort filenames by base" is enabled or disabled in the configuration.

The same happens with Latin characters:

Code: Select all

0.5x.txt
0x.txt
1.5x.txt
1x.txt
2x.txt
And the same happens in File Explorer.

So, it's either how Natural sort is supposed to work, or it's a bug in the Windows sort (= string compare) API.
