Once you set it to large icons, they will always be large icons ;)

Folder Template

You might also want to set a Folder Template (e.g. Pictures):

  1. In "Details" view, choose all of the columns that you might want to use for your "Sort by" or "Group by" options.
  2. Set the "View" to "Large Icons"
  3. Set the Folder Template (see tutorial below).
