Windows can remember folder settings, such as toolbar,
status bar, sort order etc. To do so, double click My
Computer, open your C: drive folder and, without opening
any other folders, arrange and configure it exactly as you
would like all your folders to look.
When you have satisfied, press Ctrl + Alt + Shift
simultaneously while you click on the X in the upper
right-hand corner to close the window.

PROBLEM
Previous procedure give any result. Any folder opens with
random dimension.
There is some registry key or other tricky command to
restore folder settings to default and therefore change
folder's visual properties as I want ?
 
Explorer|Tools|Folder Options|View, then "Like Current Folder". Depending on
your likings, you may also need to check "Remember each folder's view
settings"
