When I currently llok at my WinExplorer then the drive letters appear NOT alphabetically sorted.

Drive W:\ eg. comes above drive C:\ and D:\

How can I tell WinExplorer to sort the drives alphabetically?

Do you mean like this?

Link Removed due to 404 Error

That's done by having the Drive Letter shown first, which is a registry edit using the following code saved as a .reg file and merged to the registry:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer]
"ShowDriveLettersFirst"=dword:00000004
If I remove the Drive Letters, my drives stay in the same order due to, you'll notice, the judicious choice of Drive Names.
