Open Windows Explorer, then click the C: drive in the left pane. Now click 'View'
from the Toolbar and then click 'Details' in the menu. Next in the right pane, click
the 'Name' tab at the top of the name listings. This will arrange the list
by "Name'. Try this several times to be sure the order listing reverses. When you
have the order list set A-Z, hold the 'CTRL' key and click the X in the upper right
corner of Explorer to close it. Now release the 'CTRL' key and reboot your system.
Be very sure to hold the 'CTRL' key down until explorer has closed!
