Description of the Issue

When FAW points to a directory located within the Windows Subsystem for Linux (the path looks like: \wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\testUser\project), the files are not in alphabetical order. On the same computer, files located in the native Windows directory are listed alphabetically.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Install WSL
  2. create a directory with files within the WSL Ubuntu virtual machine.
  3. Add a new FAW that is located within a Ubuntu directory \wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\testUser\project

Current Behavior

The files are listed out of order

Expected Behavior

I expect the files to be in alphabetical order, like they are in FAW located within Windows native file system.
