When Browsing- Want Win Explr to Open in Thmbnail View

[Mznhmr]

Would like all image files to automatically open as thmbs
when browsing w/ Win Explorer. Have acheived this in
Folder (Web) View
[View>Customize>Pictures>IncludeSubfolders], but in
Browse mode, the window invariably opens as a list .
Heard that by holding Ctrl (or Shift) while closing
window would force W Explr to reopen that window w/
current setting, but this doesn't always work and when it
does, it seems to revert back to list in future sessions.
Any tip or trick for achieving this?

Hi,

Windows remembers 400 folder settings. When that number is reached some
settings aren't retained any longer. You can change this to 8000 by adding
this edit to the registry.

Run this edit, then reset your preferred folder options:

Increase Folder View Options Limit: (Line 2)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Windows Explorer/View/[Select Accordingly]. Then Tools/Folder
Options/View/Apply to All Folders.
