    Here's how I'd do it, using the Muenchean method. Google 'xslt muenchean' for more info from smarter people. There might be a clever way, but I'll leave that to others.

    One note, I avoid using capitals at the start of xml element names, eg 'File', but that's up to you.

    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
        <xsl:output method="html"/>
        <xsl:key name="files" match="/Problems/Problem/File" use="./text()"/>
        <xsl:template match="/">
            <html>
                <body>
                    <xsl:apply-templates select="Problems"/>
                </body>
            </html>
        </xsl:template>
        <xsl:template match="Problems">
            <xsl:for-each select="Problem/File[generate-id(.) = generate-id(key('files', .))]">
                <xsl:sort select="."/>
                <h1>
                    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
                </h1>
                <xsl:apply-templates select="../../Problem[File=current()/text()]"/>
            </xsl:for-each>
        </xsl:template>
        <xsl:template match="Problem">
            <p>
                <xsl:value-of select="Description/text()"/>
            </p>
        </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>
    

    The idea is, key each File element using it's text value. Then only display the file values if they are the same element as the keyed one. To check if they're the same, use generate-id. There is a similar approach where you compare the first element that matches. I can't tell you which is more efficient.

    I've tested the code here using Marrowsoft Xselerator, my favorite xslt tool, although no longer available, afaik. The result I got is:

    <html>
    <body>
    <h1>file1</h1>
    <p>desc1</p>
    <p>desc2</p>
    <h1>file2</h1>
    <p>desc1</p>
    </body>
    </html>
    

    This is using msxml4.

    I have sorted the output by File. I'm not sure if you wanted that.

    I hope this helps.

    This XSLT 1.0 solution will also do the trick. Bit more succinct than the other solutions!

      <xsl:template match="/">           
        <html><body>
          <xsl:for-each select="//File[not(.=preceding::*)]">
            <h1><xsl:value-of select="." /></h1>
            <xsl:for-each select="//Problem[File=current()]/Description">
              <p><xsl:value-of select="." /></p>
            </xsl:for-each>
          </xsl:for-each>
        </body></html>
      </xsl:template>
    

    Result:

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
      <body>
        <h1>file1</h1>
        <p>desc1</p>
        <p>desc2</p>
        <h1>file2</h1>
        <p>desc1</p>
      </body>
    </html>

    This solution is a little bit simpler, more efficient and at the same time more general than the one presented by Richard:

    This transformation:

    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
     xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <!--                                            -->
     <xsl:key name="kFileByVal" match="File"
           use="." />
    <!--                                            -->
     <xsl:key name="kDescByFile" match="Description"
           use="../File"/>
    <!--                                            -->
        <xsl:template match="/*">
         <html>
          <body>
          <xsl:for-each select=
             "*/File[generate-id()
                    =
                     generate-id(key('kFileByVal',.)[1])]">
            <h1><xsl:value-of select="."/></h1>
            <xsl:for-each select="key('kDescByFile', .)">
              <p><xsl:value-of select="."/></p>
            </xsl:for-each>
          </xsl:for-each>
          </body>
         </html>
        </xsl:template>
    </xsl:stylesheet>
    

    when applied to the provided XML document:

    <Problems>
        <Problem>
            <File>file1</File>
            <Description>desc1</Description>
        </Problem>
        <Problem>
            <File>file1</File>
            <Description>desc2</Description>
        </Problem>
        <Problem>
            <File>file2</File>
            <Description>desc1</Description>
        </Problem>
    </Problems>
    

    Produces the wanted result:

    <html>
       <body>
          <h1>file1</h1>
          <p>desc1</p>
          <p>desc2</p>
          <h1>file2</h1>
          <p>desc1</p>
       </body>
    </html>
    

    Do note the simple match pattern of the first <xsl:key> and how, using a second <xsl:key>, we locate all "Description" elements that are siblings of a "File" element that has a given value.

    We could have used more templates instead of <xsl:for-each> pull-processing, however this is a quite simple case and the solution really benefits from shorter, more compact and more readable code.

    Also note, that in XSLT 2.0 one will typically use the <xsl:for-each-group> instruction instead of the Muenchian method.
