Hi Michele,
Open the folder. Click Tools>Folder Options > Views > "Apply to all Folders"
option.
If the settings won't stick, read the note below from Kelly Theriot - MVP
====================================================
Windows [XP] remembers 400 folder settings. When that number is reached some
settings aren't retained any longer. You can change this to 8000 by adding
this edit to the registry.
Run this edit, then reset your preferred folder options:
Increase Folder View Options Limit: (Line 2):

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.
====================================================
NOTE: The above procedure will not work for a "Common Dialog box" File >
Open > SaveAs dialogs.

When you're in Windows Explorer, I know you can change
the view to show details. Is there a setting somewhere
that would make "Details" the default view? If you're
doing some file maintenance, this would be very handy,
because everytime I change a directory, the view
changes. Thanks for any help.
