Folder Views

[raymond.meyer]

I have Remember Folders Current View checked in Folder
Options Views, I have 3 main Icons on my desktop Apps,
Audio Apps, and Games within these folders I have all the
short cuts as Icons. Whenever I edit anything on my
computer or remane a file or delet an entry the view these
folder always changes to list instead of Icons ???

I was wondering if I was the only one who had this
problem. I have been sent information indicating that
you can edit the registry to remove or reset the Bags and
BagsMRU settings. This does not work for very long. If
you do get a satisfactory solution, I would love to hear
it.

Hi,

Windows remembers 400 folder settings. When that number is reached some
settings aren't retained any longer. You can change this to 8000 by adding
this edit to the registry.

Run this edit, then reset your preferred folder options:

Increase Folder View Options Limit: (Line 2)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Windows Explorer/View/[Select Accordingly]. Then Tools/Folder
Options/View/Apply to All Folders.
