    Hi,

    Does anyone know how to permanently set the way icons are displayed in folders? I cannot get them to stay constant, even though 'Remember each folder's view settings' is checked under Folder Options. I'll set them to 'list' view, but when I close and re-open the folder after resuming from sleep or from a reboot, they'll be in 'tile' or 'details' view instead. It's always completely random. It happens to all of my folders, each displaying a different view mode.

    Thanks.

    In just one click, you can also use WinBubble to reset your folder views...
