Window size, etc. no longer retained (userdata persistency)

[Mark Levitski]

Since a few weeks ago, ControlPanel window size (MAXIMIZED in my case) is no
longer retained on reboot and even while in session after 3-4 hours it loses
window size - opens up at wrong location/size. Additionally a few View
settings get lost e.g. NetworkConnections don't remember that I want
"detailed" veiw and not "list" - it remembers settings for a few hours only,
but used to be permanent, so how can I fix it??

Also, Taskbar->tray area almost NEVER remembered to keep my dialup status
icon hidden even if I connect at the same speed/same service (hence same
"label"), it's not as bad as Window size amnesia but I'd like to know why
userdata persistency fails on this item as well.

Appreciate your response and will answer other questions on this Newsgroup
if I know answer.

#2 The Bytes Sent Recieved keeps changing. You can turn it off altogether in
the connection Properties. If you want to look then Start - Connect To -
right click the active connection - Status.(to turn off the icon Properties)

#1 Start - Control Panel - Folder Settings - View - Reset Settings. They get
crosslinked. You network is being saved, just another folder is getting it.
Or so MS says. But I think if it's cross linked then it should read and
write to the same key. Still mine don't break so I don't get a chance to
examine what is happening.
