    That element seems to be an attribute of yours'.
    We are just trying to help each other here.
    If you are so down in the dumps, why pick on Vista instead of the real
    cause?
    Cheer up, there are better days ahead!

    Don't pick a fight with an old man.
    If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.

    That could apply to me also.

    Dude, it IS a WELL known annoyance. A quick search on Google returns
    14,200 hits for "folder view not retained in vista" for just that query.
    (wording) I have experienced the same problem with Vista Ultimate.
    The first fixes were temporary at best. The problem came back
    eventually. You Winders Zealots just crack me up. Any/All OS Zealots for
    that matter. Although the OP is "out there" he has a valid complaint here.

    Here is a more permanent fix:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU]
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags]
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU]
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags]

    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
    Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU]
    [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
    Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags]

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
    Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell]
    "BagMRU Size"=dword:00004e20

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
    Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\AllFolders\Shell]
    "FolderType"="NotSpecified"

    Save in a text file, and rename with .reg on the end.
    (Folder_view_fix.reg or similar.) Then run it, restart your computer.
    Problem solved.

    ...Oh, and no need to be an a_hole


    G'day

    So buy a Mac and stop complaining.

    Call your cousins in Tel Aviv to bomb Redmond. They can use the F16's I
    ended up paying for.

    Then buy a Mac - there is a Hebrew keyboard for it. You can make your
    pilgrimage to the Promised Land with a 13" macbook and use iMovie to
    document the event.

    When dealing with a moron there is no such thing as a valid complaint.

    Very helpful if I happen to ever have this problem.

    Take your own advice.

    Five years ago I came to a Chrysler Dealership to buy a Convertible - a
    fancar, my first new/unused car due to midlife crisis. Carrying a great
    creditcard as unlike today by creditscore was so perfect, I got 0% for a
    YEAR on a whopping 10K creditline - part of which I planned to use for a
    downpayment.

    There was a snobbishly looking Chrysler's salesman who after an arrogant
    look at my jeans & T-shirt (I often look simpler than profession or status),
    uttered with a grin "you can't buy cars with a creditcard". I said I am
    using it for a downpayment, not for entire amount & matter of fact if I wish
    I can use all $10K towards $23K Chrysler Sebring
    He again gave me a look like I am supposed to beg for Foodstamps, rather
    than buying a car. His look was telling me "I got enough buyers to care for
    you, we control enough market share to worry about 1 cheap customer"
    I'll never forgive Chrysler for that treatment. Their dealership was
    overshadowing a much smaller & democratic Nissan. As much as I wanted a
    convertible which Nissan didn't have other than a luxury $40K+ unit, I
    hopelessly turned around and decided to take a walk around Nissan and GO
    HOME. "Forget it, I need more money" I was thinking.

    The story ended up with a Nissan salesguy grabbing me by hand and almost
    dragging and explaining what I can afford, use creditcard or whatever... 5
    years later I am still riding that Nissan and my next car will also be a
    Nissan or maybe an American to support American jobs, but NOT Chrysler. In
    the following 2 years whenever I used that dealership for service, the same
    salesguy recognized & talked to me to see if I can upgrade, etc; even though
    it was "sales push" it was classy.

    This is a lesson to you Frank/Justin/SpankeyMonkey or whoever your moron
    alias is, changing daily.
    By telling me "go get a Mac" you may end up like Chrysler and GM one day who
    thought they're invicible. At the time Chrysler had an excellent sales
    year, today I am not so sure! And if you don't quit telling "go get a Mac",
    hell knows maybe people will start getting Macs because of your advise
    rather than admitting Vista problems & avoiding them in Windows7.
    The problem with WinExplorer forgetting views and insisting on its own
    selection of columns, is a problem and NOT a minor nuissance. At least it
    didn't exist in WindowsXP.
    Stop defending Vista aqs it was indeed a fiasco, Windows7 is trying to undo.
