    Library Views


    I love the library except for one thing: folder views and specifically the fact that if you open a folder via the library it does not remember which view you used.

    It works fine viewing the folder any other way than through libraries. It's incredibly frustrating having to change the view every time I switch between certain folders.

    Anyone got this frustration or, better still, a solution?

    Hello Ruudfood,

    While all Included Folders and subfolders in a library will always share the same folder view. You can have separate Arrange by view settings in each added new folder in the library though.

    Hope this helps some,
