So I just got the new box and have 2 problems I cant seem to get working right.
The first is with my computer it is set as default to show icons, im used to seeing everything as "details" and forget how to make that the default so how do I go about doing that?
Also I use a desktop bar on the taskbar for programs and dont like having any icons on the desktop, I set it up on my laptop about 2 years ago and now cant remember, so how do I get that to work?
Ok for your first problem. Open up a window like My computer (any location will work) and set the view you like. Now go to the drop down menu called "tools" and select "folder options". Go to the "view" tab and click "apply to all folders". This should set all folder views to the current view. Then scroll down through the check boxes on the view tab an un-check "remember each folders settings".
Now the second one problem you have 2 options. 1 delete all your icons, or 2, right click on the desktop, select "arrange icons by", and make sure "show desktop icons" is unchecked.
