iwod Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Is there any way to keep it stay there? In Explorer ( not internet explorer but normal HD navigation )I normal click folder everytime i open a folder. But this is getting annoying so i wonder if there is any registry hack to keep it as it is.
koyanisquasi Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Try to reset all your windows. This is the sequence I go through when im setting up a profile for the first time: Close all windows and programs. Double-click on My Computer to open it up. Select VIEW and check 'Status Bar' and 'Details'. Goto TOOLS/Folder options and goto VIEW tab. Uncheck "Display simple folder view.." and any others you wish to remove. Make sure to uncheck "Launch folder windows in separate process." Make sure to CHECK "Remember each folder's view setting."Next in same window, click RESET ALL FOLDERS button and select "Yes."Next and lastly, click APPLY TO ALL FOLDERS button and select "Yes."Now when you right-click on the start button (or anything else) and select Explore, it will open up in same window with all selections in detail view on right-side. Hope this helps.
Justice Posted April 19, 2004 Posted April 19, 2004 Or, if you don't like [right-clicking > Explore] everytime to launch explorer with a folder list, you can set it to be your default window state.Open my documents or my computer.From the menu, Tools > Folder Options...Click the File Types tab.In the list box titled Registered file types:, Highlight the (NONE) File Folder entry and click on the button labeled AdvancedIn the new box, under [Actions:], highlight explore and click the Set Default button.Click OK and close all windows.Now everytime you double-click (Or single click if you have your folders set to open on a single click) a folder, the explore layout will start with the folder list in place.
