Folders: If It Ain't Broke, DON'T FIX IT!!

When viewing folders in XP, I could set up the folder parameters I liked to
view (Name, Type, Size, Date Modified) and then tell the system I want to
see that with ALL the folders.

Now with Vista, you have the INANITY of folders types to struggle with, and
when I insist that ALL folders be changed to show these, it is now "folders
of this type."

Why would Microsoft continue to f--k with an operating environment that is
reasonably not broken, but make it even more broken???

Is it to dare the user to install Linux??

INANITY ? insanity? what do you mean?

can you please explain this problem better.. ? there is the same type of
button on vista like there was in xp
where you could set all folders like the one you are.. Or not???

Hi mavigzler,

Method Two will show you how to keep the folder templates to "All
Items" and have Vista remember how you set them instead of Vista
assigning a template automatically for you.

This will show you how to change the folder templates manually
afterwards:
