Lightroom Presets not sorted alphabetically

I have a group of Presets that were in a specific order, 1A, 2A, 1B, ect...  With the Lightroom 7.3 Upgrade, the order became all wacky and I can't seem to get it to sort.  Any ideas?

    I updated this morning. The sorting looks better. After converting the presets again I now have duplicate presets in my list. I will go through the duplicates and remove one of them. im not sure why I have duplicates, however.

    One unexpected behavior was that all presets were missing when I opened a photo that was offline. I don’t recall seeing everything disappear with an offline photo, so I initially thought the conversion process had deleted all my presets. After switching to an available photo my presets showed properly.

    Hi TJMJHWY,

    Sorry that your presets are not sorted alphabetically after the Lightroom Classic CC 7.3 update. We are aware of this problem and our Engineering team is working on it.

    Please refer this discussion: Lightroom Classic: Develop Presets Not Sorting Correctly (macOS - High Sierra) | Photoshop Family Customer Community  where our Engineers are tracking it.

    I'd suggest that you add your vote and feedback to the above discussion which is being monitored by our our Engineers.

    Thanks,

    Lightroom for professionals is about consistency, repetition, and time-saving processing. Having my presets in order was extremely important in my workflow.  Presets I have created like "Skin Brighten Reset, -3, -2, -1, +1, +2, +3" are confusing and take extra time to find when they are haphazardly sorted in my preset list.

    Please correct this!
