This thing fails each time it tries to think, so when something triggers that brain and wake it up, it wakes up and do its job incorrectly. That means each time you pop in an optical drive, re-attach an external drive, USB, remap a network drive, or those drives that have the ability to go into stand-by and wake up upon being accessed When that happens, and you try to set the view for that optical drive back to what you want, then this MS BRAIN will randomly change the view of some other of your LOCAL folders, if you had earlier set them all to be globally the same.

Ahah I perceive a certain degree of exasperation in Katai and Possumattack's replies. At least I feel less lonely. I hate those giant icons which seem designed for visually impaired or mental disabled. I will do like the Catholics during the Inquisition with the Bible, rule that XP cannot be perfected, worship it till the end of times and destroy any alternative as an heresy.

Again, this is the answer, works wonders, must do for general items type for most folders to get it. However, that is not to say that some people, especially those who have upgraded might not experienec further issues. If all else fails, try a clear Windows install. After years of wear and tear, in my experience, Windows must be reloaded to return to normal.
Just a fact of life. After 2 years, my Vista could not remember even 1 folder's settings. Clean installed Windows 7, no problems after applying this fix. As he said: Hi, The "Apply to folders" settings apply the current view setting to all folders that are optimized for the same content as the folder you have open.

Here's what my coworker said about Vista back in , thanks MS for fixing much in Windows7 since Vista fiasco days, but excuse me!
Here's his prediction from The 'developers' who were allowed to completely ruin this part of Explorer must be insane.
What is the point of having a group of 'new' features supposedly with immense 'power' if the fundamentals have been reduced to garbage? I've been writing software for 40 years now, and I'M embarrassed for the colossal mess that has been made of one of the main features of Windows, from the earliest versions.
I tried to look at the date modified column and somehow made it disappear. I mean was this change in the requirements document and clearly specified, or was it just handed to some newby with the sage direction: "Screw this up and confuse as many long time users as possible. The irony is that Windows Explorer was one that they owned and perfected.
I'm sure that the MS execs, if they pay attention at all, will see this Vista screwup as just another reason to ship development to India. A way to avoid responsibility for mistakes and mismanagement. Listen, the ONE thing that any manager has to do is to be able to look in the mirror and say "Well, today I'm the bozo. I agree that this inattention to detail is sadly typical. Friday, October 14, PM. Hi Vivian, I don't believe that you understand what the user wants. Regardless of what type of content is in the folder, regardless if the folder contains media files, or word files, or whatever; the user wants to make ALL folders view the contents in LIST VIEW for every single folder on the computer regardless of what is contained inside the folder.
This is what I want to do as well. The problem is when the user has hundreds of separate media folders that the user wants in list view. I don't believe that it is rational or logical to expect the user to manually set the view as LIST for each one of his folders. When a new folder is created containing media files it automatically default to detail view rather than LIST view as well.
It is absolutely NOT available on Windows 7. This is something that most power users want. Edited by bruce. Tuesday, November 22, PM. Warning: It will also apply the same folder icon to all of those folders also. Thursday, December 1, AM. I believe I have found the way to do it at least it worked for me.

Wednesday, August 1, PM. I am looking to have three columns in a windows contact shared folder. Name, Business Phone, and Home Phone. I can set it on my machine and it will hold the changes for just a single user. The questions I have is how can I set it to either save the changes so anyone that access that shared folder only has those three columns not the default windows columns.
Or have it set so all users on the machine have just three desired columns not the default columns. Whenever a different user logs on we have to set it up manually and several users access the PC. Any help? Tuesday, August 7, PM. Vivian, I know I'm three years late, but I wanted to say thanks anyway. Thanks again! Wednesday, August 29, PM. Yeh, also would like to say thanks to Vivian.

Thank you this saved me a lot of grief. It is always the simplest things give you the biggest headache. Use this option to choose which programs you want Windows to use, by default.
If a program does not show up in the list, you can make the program a default by using Set Associations. Click the program that you want to use as the default for the file type you selected, or click the arrow next to Other Programs to show additional programs.
If you don't see Other Programs , or your program is not listed, click Browse to find the program you want to use, and then click Open. If no other programs are installed that are able to open the file type or protocol, your choices will be limited. If you don't see the program you want to use as the default, click the arrow next to Other Programs to see a list of programs available on your computer.
Note: You cannot change an association for a file type or protocol and leave it blank or disassociated. You must select a new program. The options you set here only apply to your user account. Your choices won't affect other user accounts on this computer. CmdrKeene MVP. In reply to FahimAbdullah's post on July 9, Nothing is useless :. How satisfied are you with this reply?

Remember to create global groups to contain the users and assign the permissions. Begin by enumerating the location of each file server that will host user folders, then name each global and domain local group accordingly. Once the groups are created, you can begin the redirection process. Enable Folder Redirection There are special considerations when enabling folder redirection.
Right-click the folder you want to redirect, and select Properties. In the Specify Group and Location dialog box, type the group using the down-level group name; i. Click OK to return to the Properties dialog box. Repeat for each group and server location you need to enter.
Move to the Settings tab. This will ensure that redirected folders return to original locations if, for some reason, the policy is removed. You can also control how the settings will be applied. Note that the first two settings are selected by default. If you have down-level clients, then also select the Also Apply Redirection Policy setting.
