folder view settings

Posted: 07-11-2003, 03:51 PM
Hi all,

Something strange is going on here...

I've reset my folders to the default view, and all looks
great. Then, I double-click My Computer, and change it's
view to "Arrange Icons" to "Show in groups". Now, My
Computer shows the way I want. However, a folder down at
C:\here\there\and\somewhere changes it's view to "Show in
groups" as well!! Sibling folders have not been affected.
If I change that folder back, I also affect the My
Computer folder. I even deleted the entire C:\here\...
tree, and then rebuilt it from our source control, and
the problem still persists, so some setting has been
stepped on :-(

Thanks...

I have 'almost' the same problem ... for me it's ... I
change the view to what I want & it should stay, right???
But, it doesn't. The next time I go in, I have to make
the view change again, & again, & again ... tired of it.
Why does it not keep my changes?

Sorry, DR .. don't mean to stand out over your question.
Hopefully !! someone can help us, both.

Thanks!
