1. Why is it that I can't get My Computer to automatically open in Detail
View, and with the left-hand pane showing the folder tree?

2. It oftern happens that when I open my computer it comes up in Thumbnails
view, even though when I closed it down it was in detail view, and I have
clicken on "Apply to all Folders".

Thanks
 
Problem 1. Open folders in Windows Explorer mode by default (i.e. with
folder pane enabled):

Thanks a million.

The first one worked like a charm, so I assume the second one will too. I
can't tell because as I wrote in the original post, it only happens some of
the time.

Thanks again.
