Recommended Posts

When I view folders through windows explorer it displays as a list. This is

the default I have set. When I try to do a save or a save as the folders

display as thumbnails. How can I set it so the folders are set to the list

view in any window?

Thanks.

Re: Folders view: how to set default

 

I have mastered using this program:

 

Folder View Master (no homepage anymore)

http://mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FVM3.zip or

http://members.home.nl/alsdewiedeweerga/Scripts/FVM3/FVM3.rar

 

Just follow its directions. If you want to master folder views too, just

ask.

Open a folder and have it set exactly as you like. From the menu at the top

click Tools>Folder Options. Click on the View tab. Adjust anything you like

there and then click the button at the top that says "apply to all folder".

Apply/OK out.

It is completely unnecessary to use a third-party program to do what is

built into Windows.

I've asked this question a lot lately. How is it possible to be so dumb,

Malke?

 

RE: "(snip possible spam)"

I guess your fellow MVP Keith Miller (Author of FVM) is a spammer!

It is well documented (Google Groups) that I accept correction gracefully

when I am wrong. It is unfortunate that you felt you needed to resort to an

ad hominem attack instead of pointing out my mistake, but I can understand

that your feelings were greatly hurt by my mistaking your posting those

links in more than one thread as possible spam. I was completely at fault

for not checking out the links first and so I offer you a most abject

apology.

 

As for my stupidity, I can only say that I'm sorry for it also. You can

avoid reading my stupid posts easily but I won't insult your intelligence

by pointing out how.

 

Again, I apologize for mistaking your intent and hurting your feelings. You

needn't respond; I certainly understand how one would be reluctant to

engage in discourse with such a stupid person as myself.
