Guest Rouke Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Except for in the control panel, I would like the "Folders" always to be displayed in the left hand panel and "Details" in the right hand panel of any explorer window. I've set these and then selected "Apply to all folders" in "Tools-Folder Options-View" and have also checked "Remember each folder's view settings", but each time I open an explorer the view is reset to display "Icons" only. My computer is part of a large organization's network, and I have contacted the system administrator, who has been aware of the problem for years, but is unable to fix it. I wonder if someone in this newsgroup is able to shed some light on this problem
