Windows 10: Is it possible to change Windows 10's native numbering style or format?

I'm using Windows 10 Pro and I have several files in my Pictures and Documents folders that I've numbered according to category. I wanted to know if it's possible to change the numbers from number to 00number format. Or does this functionality even exist in Windows 10?I didn't see anything addressing this in Control Panel, so maybe not, but maybe I'm overlooking something.

Changing Time Format

Hi Mary,

There's a possibility that the set up time format in your computer Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is military time. To have this checked, you can try to reset the time of your computer through Control Panel. See the steps below on how to do
so:

• Open Control Panel > Clock, Language, and Region >
  Change date, time, or number formats. This would open the
  Region window.
• From there, click on Additional settings at the bottom part. It will open the Customize Format.
• Click Reset; then, OK.

The steps should work; however, if not, we suggest that you contact manufacturer and have the BIOS time checked.

Let us know what happens after doing the suggestions .

Thanks for reaching out. My name is, Zadee. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I'll be glad to help you today.

From what I understand you're trying to rename all the folders/files with just numbers to 00(numbers). If that's the goal, windows do not have this. There might be 3rd party apps that can help you rename these folders/files all at once, however. If you need to download a 3rd party app, research the app thoroughly to make sure that's clean and not going to run malicious stuff on your device.

Since this is also a feature that's not present at the moment with Windows. You can send a feature suggestion to MS through the Feedback Hub. They might implement the feature in the future Windows OS.
