Folder View Options

[Duncs]

Hi all.

In "My Documents" and all folders under it, I want to display the 'Detail'
view showing Name, Size, Date Modified etc. However, I don't want to use
this view on any other folder, e.g. C:\Windows.

Is this possible?

TIA

Duncs

In View > Choose details, you can remove those details, but this
only applies to the displayed folder. Subfolder details will have
to be changed folder by folder.

Re: Folder View Options

Use this VBScript to set your folder views:

Folder View Master by MS-MVP Keith Miller (no homepage anymore)
http://mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FVM3.zip or
http://members.home.nl/alsdewiedeweerga/Scripts/FVM3/FVM3.rar

Just follow its directions. If you want to master folder views too, just ask.
