Saving my inividual folder settings?

Sweetloaf · 6 Feb 2006 at 17:50

My system seems to have decided to forget my view settings for each individual folder, In folder options I have "Remember each folders view settings" ticked, Is there something simple I've forgotten? :confused:

btw(XPHome)

Cheers

just giving this a bump because I still appear to be too stupid to sort it?? :confused:

Why just not try 'Reset' and see what it does :confused:

You mean restore defaults?

Done that , still doesn't save them!

Nah I meant 'Reset all folders'

Click to reset the folder settings that were in effect when Windows was installed. This does not apply to toolbar settings.

Might help not sure

But from MS "To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft Windows XP. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:"

Service pack 2 corrected it :confused:

Do you want the same settings for all folders? If so, adjust them how you want, click "Tools" > "Folder Options" > Select the "View" tab > Click "Apply to All Folders"

I'd like individual settings penguin..cheers anyway.

Needle, it's not remembering any view setting at no matter how many files I seem to have?
