Folder Options View

[Sam]

in Folder Options/View, or anywhere else, is there a way to maintain the view
for that folder without changing the default view for ALL folders. When I
reboot, each folder I have customzied before reverts back to the all defualt
settings.

In Explorer's Tools; Folder Options; choose the View tab and make sure
there is a check mark at "Remember Each Folders' View Settings".
That should do it for you unless you have a hormongously huge
number of folders to remember, in which case if it stops working after
awhile, you might have to up the number of views it can remember. I
forget the default but it's enough for most folk but not all.

The default is 400 folders, and it can be changed with TweakUI which is
available at Microsoft.
