Hi.

I have Windows XP home.

Folders do not keep the viewing options we'd like. They keep resetting to
"Detailed" and keep resetting the size of the window to 3/4 the page
rectangular. So say for instance, we have one folder on our desktop that has
5 files in it. When it comes up I'd like for it to view "Icons" and to be a
long rectangular box at the bottom of my monitor screen. It used to do this,
but now it views as "Detailed" and a bigger window in the middle of my
monitor. I can reset it and it will keep that setting (mostly) until we
reboot (which every night we turn off the computer).

A while back our other computer was having this problem and someone gave me a fix that changed a value in the registry, but I can't find that anywhere where I saved it!!!
