Folder Options View Settings post 1

I have heard that there is a glitch in Xp that you cannot save all of your folders settings to show details instead of icons for folders. As in the registry has to be updated to increase the size of the memory to remember more than 800

I received this script from a person online who had offered it for free to be downloaded in a .reg file
It ran , but it did not work

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.0

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell
"BagMRU Size"=dword:00001f4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam
"BagMRU Size"=dword:00001f4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
"NoSaveSettings"=dword:0000000

Try this one, it works
The Default for Windows XP is to remember the view settings for the 400 most
recently used folders.

Line #2 – Increase Folder View Size Limit to 8000

Basically these are the lines - but it is for 2000 not 8000, so it will give you
an idea of what Kelly's little tweak does.

The Folder information is stored in the registry by these two keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam
These keys can be modified to force XP to remember more folder settings.

1. Open Windows Explorer and go to Tools--Folder Options--View Ensure that
"Remember each folder's view settings" is checked.

2. Open Regedit and go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell. Right-click on
"Shell", then follow to New--Key--DWORD Value. Name this item "BagMRU Size"
(without quotation marks, but with a space between BagMRU and Size).
Double-click BagMRU Size, give it a Decimal value of 2000, then click OK.

3. Now go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam. Create another BagMRU
Size DWORD Value for "ShellNoRoam". Again, give it a Decimal value of 2000, then
click OK.

4. You will have two "BagMRU Size" values equal to 0x000007d0 (2000).

5. Close the registry and reboot.

Windows XP will now remember 2000 folder view settings instead of 400
