    Setting default folder view for "The Internet" path?


    I've set the default folder view to Details for all drive folders.

    But the folder I am currently working from is accessed through the internet, i.e. the file path at the top of the window starts with "The Internet".

    This defaults to icon view even though I applied the Details view to all other drive folders.

    Is there a way to set the default view for internet folders?

    Are you able to take a screenshot of the folder in question, i'm not sure what you mean by the internet folder?

    Here are a couple of screenshots.

    In the first shot, you can see "The Internet" in the file path.

    The second shot was taken after selecting the file path. Apparently this is an ftp folder if that makes any difference.

    But it opens in Windows Explorer so I'm hoping there's a way to set the default view.

    Ah so yeah these folders to my understanding don't come under the same rules that you set for default folder view as its an ftp site you are hitting, i'm not sure if it is possible?

    Stick around and maybe someone else knows definitively.
