Folder's View Settings Revert to "Details" Option

[Chris-the-challenged]

I have several folders I have created on my desktop to
hold shortcuts to files and websites. I have attempted
to customize view settings for each folder by selecting
the "Remember each folder's view settings" option located
when I right-click at Tools-->Folder Options-->View. On
some folders, I want icons to appear when I select the
folder; others, I want filenames and details.
Regardless, whenever I reboot, when I click on a folder,
it only will show the list or details view. Is there
another setting I need to keep the last view as the
default view for a desktop folder? Thanks.

Hi,

If view settings are not remembered, you may try to download and apply this edit:
