Getting current view to apply to ALL folders

G

Guest

I recently moved my Outlook folder to My Documents. I had to repoint Outlook to the new location. I noticed that my View settings went away. I've got well over 20 subfolders under "personal folders." I group by Conversation and sort by Received. Isn't there a way to apply those settings to ALL 20 subfolders ? Do I really have to go to each subfolder, one-by-one and re-set the view settings on each ?? Hope not-- thanks in advance.

If the folders are still in their default view you can change the messages
view by going to View-> Arrange By-> Current View-> Define Views...
All the folder that are still in their default view will change as well.

Otherwise create a new view and apply that view on first use of that folder.
