Remembering Explorer Window and Column Widths

Greetings,

Is there a way to get XP's explorer windows to remember the window size and the widths of the columns? Every time a window
is opened, the folder list appears (as desired) on the left, but the name, size, and date columns are too wide and out of the
view and I must either scroll or resize the columns. Selecting the remember folder settings has no effect.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

LarryS
 
See if this helps, Larry.

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

Thanks, Kelly. That worked just fine.
