Resetting default folder-view behavior

I

IWantXPBack

A few weeks ago I must have inadvertently pressed some key combination, and
now every folder I open is displaying as a photo/video folder, with no
filenames dislplayed.

This is happening even for folders containing no images or video.

I've gone through and unchecked the "Hide File Names" on a number of
folders, only to have the file names missing again when I reopen (some of)
them at a later date.

Clearly, whatever I accidentally did has affected nearly all of the folder
views on my machine, because if I go into folders I haven't opened for over a
month (which contain only text documents and sub-folders), even those are not
displaying file names.

How do I get the system-wide properties of folder display back to the way it
was, where the default view of a folder's contents was the "Documents" or
"All Items" display? I can see how to do it for sub-directories, but not
system wide.

Thank you.
