Folder view settings

G

Guest

In Folder Options in Windows Explorer, I have "Remember each folder's view settings" checked. Yet it never seems to remember my preference for certain folders. For example, in the Printers Control Panel, I prefer to see the Icon view, but it always seems to come up with Details view. The reverse happens with some of my folders, that is, I prefer Details view but they display in Icon view unless I change them, but then I can't be sure my new setting will "stick" for good

Are there some exceptions to the Folder Options setting? Is there something in the Registry that I need to clear or set differently?
