Explorer Folder Views change from list to default icons

[Guest madrianr]

Subject: Explorer Folder Views change from list to default icons if the user

logs on to a terminalserver different from that where the profile was created.

 

Environment: Win2K3 + SP1 R2 Server with Citrix Presentation Manager 4.0,

Windows Fundamental for Legacy PC's with Citrix ICAW32 Client V9.15.

 

Our users use terminal roaming profiles. It is possible to use different

view mode settings in Windows Explorer - icons, tiles, details, etc. But

after logoff Explorer forgets that mode, and after logging back to a terminal

server restores the default view mode (icons). Sometimes the settings are

retained if a user logs back to the same terminal server immediately.

Sometimes not. All other settings are remembered correctly.

 

Target: Set the Explorer Folder View to a standard view for all users and

retain it anyway.

Hi,

 

I have the same problem.

 

Users can change the setting, but the system will not remember it.

But the system will remember the changes made by an administrator.

I think it is a GPO setting.

 

Target: set the Windows Explorer folder view standard for all users

-or- let users change the setting and Windows Explorer must remember the

personalized setting.

 

Hopefully somebody has the answer,

Sincerely,

Bas

FYI, I've asked the same question in the Windows Group Policy Forum:

Users van change the setting and the system will save the setting with this

option:

 

Check your Terminal Server GPO:

UserConf\AdmTempl\Desktop\Don’t save settings at exit

this should be disabled.

 

Cheers,
