I discovered the same problem and was very annoyed by it. I never found a
solution for the sorting but I did find a way to change the format of the
date:
Launch the Regional and Language Options in the Control Panel. "Select the
"Customize this format..." button on the Formats tab. In the Date tab,
change the Short Date format to "yyyy/MM/dd". This allows the files to sort
as expected since the year appears first in the date string. FYI, I also
added the leading zero to the hours in my time format.
Obviously this is a work around rather than a solution. I got me what I
wanted, though.
