is there any way to make your files be viewed as Details in your folders? besides going through EVERY folder and going View > Details? it defaults right now as the big Thumbnails, can i change the default?

 

open folder
change to view as details
tools
folder options
view
apply to all folders

 

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: thanks.. i knew ive done it before, and i couldnt remember how, or figure it out

 

that's never worked for me on any winxp system i've used.. ill try again..

:dunno:

it would only change it for the time i was in explorer.... wouldnt save like that for next time

 

I have a similar question. When I click a link and it opens a new window, how can I make it be maximized by default? I read in the older windows u could like, hold down shift when u closed a window and that would set the default but that doesn't seem to work. It's sooooooo annoying having to maximize every window that opens. Anyone know how to do this?

 

I don't think there is any way to make IE do that automatically, but here's a program I use.

It lives in your system tray and anytime a new window opens, it automatically full sizes it. Take a little getting used to (a slight delay sometimes) but is very easy to live with. I hardly notice it happens anymore, but other computers feel strange.
