Title: File Views in Windows Explorer
Post by: Jerry on 2002-09-03T08:56:54-05:00 (Tuesday)

Ok, I prefer that the list view when I open a folder in Windows. Window defaults to one of the icon views. So EVERY folder I open for the first time I find myself pulling down the view menu and clicking on list.

Is there anyway to set a system preference for
all folders to default to list view?

Yeah, just open up an explorer window, set things up the way you like them then go to tools->folder options, view tab, and click like current folder.

It works for changing views, like to list, not just the stuff in the folder options menu.

Thanks. You know I went to tools and folder options before but missed that particular button.
Some sort of HCI thing going on.
