You admittedly are unemployable.
Your opinion is moot.

I set WinExplorer for Details, grouped by file type, and it always shows
that.
Perhaps you messed something up.

That's why you label yourself a software engineer?
That's not programming.
That's creating a shortcut.

Speaking of getting work done... have you looked into babysitting yet?
You should.

By the way, where is their rear exit? I didn't see one last time Vista
started. Is this some mysterious exit that only you and the space alians
know about?

 

How would you feel when after a shutdown, or next morning, or at random
during a runnign session, numerous WinExplorer folders change
listing/sroting appearance to what imbecile progreammer likes, and NOT what
you left at last time?

How DID it feel when in WindowsXP you set it once and you can be assured for
sometimes a year, not to waste time on resorting and changing listing back
to LIST and not "medium icons" appearance.
Who is the degenerate moron programming WinExplorer to be a piece of such
trash comparing to WindowsXP.

You don't have an answer, MS-funded, fanatic Vista promoter MVP, you don't
want to admit this is garbage.

And is the reason businesses stayed away from Vista for 2 years.

WinExplorer is one of the central pieces of GUI, screw it up one mroe time
in Windws7 and expect your revenues to fall further.

This happens to me occasionally, it is a minor annoyance at most but an
annoyance none the less.

 

And to top this:

Once in a few days, a Quicklaunch button I programmed to open WinExplorer in
a certain folder, launches WinExplorer in random location/random window
size.
It simply forgets last (MAXIMIZED) size, because of an idiotic code that
disregards customer settings.

And don't tell me about BagsRMU or whatever, first I had nothing todo about
it in WinXPSP2, second it's not the cause in Vista.
More important is that it was set once in WinXP, in Vista I find myself
spending time on absoluetly retarded activities.

When you see "Vista Business" edition, it's an oxymoron. I have Ultimate,
it's an ultimate waste of PRODUCTIVITY.
It was designed for home users & gamers to spend a life on a computer,
instead of getting real work done.

 

WELL I WANT ALL FOLDERS TO BE IN "LIST" APPEARANS, NOT DETAILS! Whether it
be binaries, text, PDF, Word docs, JPG, I want all be in list mode and it
persistently goes back to what Vista likes regardless of List template
applied to all folder/filetypes.

OK, and details view is something I've been using upto WinXP and stopped as
background color of the column by which files are sorted is white with white
fonts, so becomes invisible in my system-wide color scheme where background
is BLACK, Windows enforces white background in this spot disregarding
system-wide setting.
That is a separate issue (now plaguing WInMail also, unlike OutlookExpress).

The fact is WinExplorer forgets view settings at random, and if it doesn't
on your machine, then maybe you're using something Vista programmers used as
default anyway.

The fact is many people hate Vista Explorer.

 

How about Vista utiltiies (Control panel, networks, printers, etc)
forgetting window size at random? Not just WinExplorer.
But that's fine, because after all we don't go there often.

However, when WinExplorer is programmed to start with a certain view/folder
open (for example: %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e, /root,
C:\zJOBS\zNEWEST-zReducedContr)
it works for like a few hours, and then suddenly forgets window size, or
sorting, listing or just turns on "tags" and turns off "type"

WHO DA HELL NEEDS GOD DA***MN TAGS EVER? Who added this useless stuff into
WinExploer, OK OK you can keep it.
But why do you turn off "Type" column because it's all pictures and you
THINK I don't need Type column, yet I need tags or "date picture taken".

They can shove this Explorer in their rear exit.

Funny, I never have these problems with my Vista machine. As "Pa Bear"
always says:

You gotcha some malware.

Not sure why you posted that link. It has nothing to do with the
problem described. Trying to blame everything on malware.

To be honest, that was my first thought when reading the OP.
Shouldn't we know what kind of protection JEWboy uses?
Come on, let's be objective here and not try to blame Vista for the user's
incompetence, unless we have all the facts.

This website explains it.



I applied the fix and it no longer changes folder views.

Try it yourself. Create a folder on your c: and note the columns. (for
me it shows filename, date modified, file type, size) Then copy a .jpg
file into it. Change directories and go back into the new folder with
the .jpg in it. Note the columns have changed (filename, size, rating).

Apply the reg fix from the above link, reboot, and try it again.
Fixed. No malware, no user incompetence, just vista.

Incompetence is saying "I haven't noticed it. So it doesn't exist. So it
must be malware"

 

Technology is not meant for everyone.
Some should stick with a pencil and paper, but make sure to get a BIG
eraser.

I didn't say 'it must be', only 'that was my first thought', and if someone
is into it that much, he should also know how to operate the system
accordingly. I don't have any of his problems, therefore incompetence
doesn't apply here for me.
Your obligation was, to make the solution you described earlier available to
the OP from the start, instead of loosing yourself in subjective remarks.
In my book Vista is ok. and I don’t see any reason to 'hate it'.
Case closed.

I didn't have the solution earlier. The annoyance was so minor that it
never bothered me to the point of wanting to find a fix. So I'll thank
you and the other "pa bear" post for getting me bothered enough to look
for one.

Except for one more thing:
Why can't I see my post you replied to?
Every once in a while this seems to happen to me.
It shows up in my sent folder.
