This is my biggest, biggest issue with both Explorers in WinXP and 2K.
When I would set all folder to details view in Win98SE after adjusting
columns, etc., they'd STAY and stay permanently.
Win2K no matter which machine I was on on my contracts, or at home,
hardly ever worked properly despite setting the folder view to what I
wanted and unticking "Remember each folder's view settings". Becuase
of the multiple contracts I have in any given year, I know this is a
fault with Win2K otherwise it wouldn't be a problem no matter where I
was sent to work.
WinXP seems to last a little bit longer at my chosen setting but,
eventually, reverts back to the factory default of large icons. I'm
really fed up with this. I make full use of LFNs and often
differentiate files with the date at the end. Since I format the date
in yyyy.mm.dd, the files are all chronological but I make best and
most efficient use of LFNs and file saving in details view.
Is there a registry fix or other that _once_ and for _all_ completely
fixes this, pls? I do so hope so because it's the single most
frequent thing I have to stop and see to. It's very annoying.
Thanks much. I really appreciate any help with this in advance.
Cheers. D
