Applying Settings to all Folders

Is there a way in folder options that will allow me to set up all the views
the same in explorer? As far as viewing by group and sizing the width of the
name, date modified, type, ect.. columns? I know how to use the apply to
folders in the folder options. But unlike XP, Vista doesnt seem to do this
to all directories.

Re: Applying Settings to all Folders

Hello,

Try unchecking the check box for 'Remember each folder's view
settings.'

This feature works great for some people, other times it doesn't ... I
never figured out what the difference was.
