Appearance in windows

jeandrut · 06 May 2012

Good morning;

I've got Win7 x64, Professional.

I have a problem as windows automatically change "Appearance" when it detect for eg mp3.

Example : I'm in my D: hard drive and wanna to have allways the "LIST" model appearance.

Like this :

But when i enter into a folder, it goes to "DETAILS" automatically

sometimes as below :

As you can see, the dispatching is different.

How can i Avoid Win 7 to change by itself (as i did in XP) and how to say : "i want "list" mode for all view in any folder ?

I try to do it via 'option'; but do not work.

Tk's !!

Two things can solve this:

1) Select any folder and fully customize in the way you want all folders. When done, go to tools menu => folder options => view tab => push the button "apply to all folders" => accept. Try if that solved the issue.

2) If that doesn't worked, right-click the folder under the problematic one resides => properties => personalize => in the "optimize this folder for" combo choose "general elements" => check "apply to all subfolders" => accept and try again.

(for both)
Folder View - Apply to Folders
