168274 2003-08-18 00:28:00 How do I get the folder view settings (List, icons, details etc) to stick in XP Home? I've selected every setting I can find to make them all the same, save the settings etc, but they always revert to the large icons!

Any ideas?

168277 2003-08-18 05:09:00 Archibald's method is the one I use also. Did you ensure that only one instance of Windows Explorer was open when trying his method? You may need to close Windows Explorer immediately afterwards as well. tommy (2826)
