U can make a folder shortcut (not a shrtcut to a folder) that will do
what u want but it will be for a fixed folder.

Gotta use macro to do it for any folder.VBS/AutiIt 4 example

This was asked & answered in post I made in last 3 mos- Google this NG

Any advice is my attempt to contribute more than I have received but I can only assure you that it works on my PC. GOOD LUCK.

If you want more control you can try AutoHotKey : http://autohotkey.com

Example-
What=explorer.exe /e,C:\

Run %What%
EClass=ahk_class ExploreWClass
WinWait %EClass%
PostMessage,0x111,28716,,,%EClass%
PostMessage,0x111,30213,,,%EClass%
WinMove,,,,,900,700


the script will
- open explorer at c drive
- in explorer view
- with details view
- Date Modified selected
- Window Width-900, Height-700




Good Luck, Ayush.
