The default display for icons in folders is as "tiles."
For folders with a lot of icons, this is worse than
useless. I have a lot of these folders, and am constantly
using "View | List" to change to a more manageable display.
Is there any way to set this globally, so that all folders
are viewed as list as soon as I open them?
 
Yes - set up a folder exactly the way you like it. Then, go to tools -
folder options. Click on the View tab, and select "Apply to All Folders."
 
Open Windows Explorer, switch to the list view,
open "tools/folder options...", switch to the view pane,
click "apply to all folders"
