: How does one sort the file order in making a

If you don't have many files, one way to do it would be with a single command-line command such as:
for %x in (banana.sys apple.com orange.exe) do copy c:\wherever\%x a:\
("banana.sys" would end up being the first file in the root directory of the disk in drive A:, "apple.com" the second file, etc.).
You could also create a simple batch file to copy the files, in the correct order, onto the disk. For example:
copy c:\wherever\banana.sys a:\
copy c:\wherever\apple.com a:\
copy c:\wherever\orange.exe a:\
