KB Basic Question

To most of you this will probably be a basic question. To
me not knowing how to make the requested change has become
a pain in the rump.

I always view my files in "detail" view. To do so I have
to go to view and make the change. And not always does the
change stay in effect for when I go back to the folder
later in time.

Is there a way to specify view "detail" as a default
setting for all my files listings?

If you could be of assistance I would greatly appreciate
your help.

Thank you.

go to tools, folder options, view, apply to all folders

Have you tried to open Windows Explorer, set the View to Details, and then
open Tools|Folder Options|View and tell it to Apply to All Folders?
