Folder View Settings Don't Stick

[Larry]

I have a desktop folder with shortcuts to applications.
I set the view options to Tiles and eventually the view
changes itself to Icons. I have the folder properties
set to remember the settings. I want to keep the Tiles
view without it setting itself back to Icons. Is there a
solution?

Hi

View settings are limited to 400. Try the following link to increase those
settings to 8000:

Hi

I'm not sure, but you said 'eventually' which may be because of the 400
limit setting.

They seem to be sticking now. I've opened the folder several times and the
view has not reverted back to Icons.
