Set folder view globally to details

How do I set Windows7 to open all folders in the details view. Currently I now have to set each window as I open them




Thanks,

I finally made it back. I do not find the "FOLDER OPTIONS" button anywhere on my folder.

I am not sure I correctly attached my screen capture. It can be seen

The attached picture is of the Disk management window. You dont set folder options there.

Navigate to your folder location in Windows Explorer, then follow the tutorial.

When you open a Windows Explorer window, hit the ALT key if you don't see the menus at the top.
