Custom folder view set correctly as default except for the recycle bin

[TuMaGoNx]

1- reset all folders (or delete the keys)

2- set a default view from "My computer" with "Apply to all folders" (without touching anything else)

3- reboot

4- change only recycle bin view to show order by date deleted inverted

5- export keys to save current configuration (optional)

6- try if bin works correctly (needs testing with more files, at first glance appears good even if it's not)

You really misunderstood me!

After step 3 here is>>

After I open and customize some (including "windows\Downloaded Program Files" and other) folder's order here is>>

After I OPEN Recycle Bin here is>> note: i don't set the order yet, and voila BagMRU/1 pop in.

After I restore my reg which is: (note: nodeslot 4d equal to 77 in decimal)

here is>>

after logoff and open bin again >> still the same

Now here is the quirks no.1: I should revise my advice to set deny permission and it should be mandatory!

Yes, after unknown period (20 minutes in my test) BagMRU/1's nodeslot changed/deleted mysteriously. that's why you need to set deny permission (for users and ?system? ) for that key and MAYBE for bags/77 too

like this>>

quirks no.2: I'm fully realised that we are editing HKCU so it never universal to every user...that why some say its impossible/impratical

Some say you could change permission from regini.exe (I haven't tried it)

I hope you don't feel this is not achievable.... Bye

Ah thanks for the message because I stopped looking at this tread.

Why did you say I misunderstood you? I understood what you've done (I already did the same), but that method works only if you don't set a default view for all! And that's what I'm trying to do: default for all, but single view customizable

Did you set the Streams key too?

My shell key about the bin doesn't disappear and doesn't have that "FolderType"="MyDocuments" string (sure it's the correct folder?)

Also try with more files in the bin: again at first glance it seems all ok

And please tell me yes\no: do you want to try my registry keys to test? It's the only way to show you what I mean

p.s: maybe you think I misunderstood as you missed all my discoveries about Bags and Streams folders in the BIG posts above! Have a look!

Sorry Phaolo, i have just read post#9.. 100% my fault.

So lets me say that you already know:

BagMRU/1 which in my system (hex:14 00 1F 60 40 f0 5f 64 81 50 1b 10 9f 08 00 AA 00 2F 95 4E 00 00) point to bin's bag

or more correctly system seek which BagMRU contained that hex, otherwise it will create new one orderly, read its nodeslot and get the shell.

And we're agree that hex is persistent as i found that it also exist inside shell32.dll file

And the only left problem is that weird sort?

Then, nothing more i could say now(days ago actually)

(oh, and i didn't set any stream)

but I have follow your instructions exactly, more I even set date and time format to match yours, and add more deleted file in various time and date,

but it sort perfectly.

maybe it just a Bug for you Windows release

[phaolo]

Lol my usual luck, a personal bug hehe.

Well, nothing more to do then.

Thanks for help tumagonx, has been funny testing these misterious Windows keys together
