Remember Folder's View Settings

[a_witko]

My folders don't want to remember their view settings. Windows has it set to 'remember 400 folder's view settings' - done via ms powertoy tweakUI, and 'remember folder's view settings is enabled in folder options. BUT IT STILL DOESN'T REMEMBER IT..

What else can I do? Registry keys?

Set the number of folder customisations Explorer will remember to a higher number (mine is set to 8000).

I've done that already, changed from 400 to 500, now I changed it to even 2000. It still doesn't work though.

The regkey is, HKEY_CURRENT_ USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\ShellNoRoam

On the right window panel, select BagMRU and change the value in hex according to your requirements

Cache size Hex value

1000 3e8

2000 7d0

3000 bb8

4000 fa0

5000 1388

TweakUI can do it also.

Set it to an even higher number. The number of folders on your computer can be higher than you think.
