Folder display options... ?!

[Sebastien]

Hi all gurus !

I have a Folder display problem : I cannot configure my Windows Explorer to
alwayse display the folders with the same settings, for all network drives,
for all folders.

I would like to display them with the "Details" view... impossible ! Even if
I check the "Apply to all folders" button, the settings are not kept : when
I re-launch the Windows Explorer, the settings are those by default.

Any ideas ? What are exactly the steps I have to accomplish ?

Subsidiary question : is that a way to fix this by policy, using the GPO's ?

Thanks a lot for your help ! I will greatly appreciate it !

After you have set the options under Tools->Folder Options->View->In the
Folders View section, click on Apply to All Folders.

Hi

The folder settings are limited to 400. The following link will allow those
settings to be increased to 8000:
