Folder View Settings are not retained

When I set the VIEW to a specific setting, the settings
are not retained. The retain settings in TOOLS to retain
the settings is checked on. This problem has been occuring
for several months now. How do I fix this? Is there a
registry tweak that can solve this permanently?

Thanks,
Russ Martinson

Russ,

Windows [XP] remembers 400 folder settings. When that number is reached some
settings aren't retained any longer. You can change this to 8000 by adding
this edit to the registry.

Run this edit, then reset your preferred folder options:

Increase Folder View Options Limit: (Line 2):

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it and
answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by right
clicking on the file and selecting Edit.
