Save As opens in wrong View mode

[terrypin]

I have all my folders set to List View. But most applications insist on opening Save As > My Pictures (and Save As > My Videos) in Thumbnail view. As these folders contain scores of subfolders, that's never appropriate for me. Is it possible to change that behaviour for XP generally please?

No one with any suggestions on how to do this please?

Make a new profile, migrate data to new profile.

Thanks, but how would that fairly complex step help? Anyway, the profile I'm using already is a new one. (I changed it because OEM supplier had called the original 'Admin', and I didn't like that.)

Any other ideas anyone please? Is this behaviour the default? If so, I'd have thought most users would also want to change it? Getting thumbnails every time you try to Open or Save My Pictures is a real pain.
