There used to be a setting for "Remember each fodlers settings" under "Organize"->"Folder and search options"->"View". You can see if that is there, it's missing on my pro install but it works exactly as if it was enabled

If you have confirmed that on your "Home" machine, right clicking a non-library folder and changing the view or changing the document type of the folder also changes it on a sibling folder, then I guess the answer is that on Home it acts as if that option were unchecked.  And I bet there is a registry entry for it. I just took a quick look and couldn't find it but I bet it's there... |

Libraries are the only place where the parent library folder governs how the subfolders behave for view options. That is why I suggested :

1. Right click the folder icon pinned to your taskbar 2. Right click Windows Explorer 3. Click Properties 4. Change target from %windir%\explorer.exe to %userprofile% Now the pinned folder will open your user folder instead of libraries. |

I had this problem when I was trying to view photos that a program was keeping in a sub-folder in my Documents folder, but like was said before it was in a library. After reading this thread I had a great idea, I went directly to the Documents folder and added it to my favorites in the sidebar. Basically MS messed this up when they made the libraries feature. I'm happy with this work-around and I hope it helps other people. Added with edit: I forgot to say that I don't want to change my shorcut target because I already have it set to %windir%\explorer.exe /e,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
