Saving Explorer Folder View

[pupil]

Hi there, I've been battling with this all day, I've read on several places in this forum about exporting the following registry entry to save the way folders are viewed in Windows Explorer:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams]

"Settings"=

I have also exported this setting as well:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\1\Desktop]

"ItemPos1280x1024(1)"=

then I've messed up my folder views, applied to all folders, restarted, applied the previously saved reg entries, then restarted, but on restart things aren't back to how I want them (how things were when I exported those reg entries).

I've tried RegShot and it it only says I am adjusting those same 2 settings, but in the HKEY_USERS string, not the HKCU?!

What on earth am I doing wrong?

thanks.

HKU and HKCU are the same registry hive; they map to one another. Read the UA Guide on the registry.

In an unattended setting, you should use HKCU.

Kindly consult these previous threads: there're more registry settings than what you've mentioned.
