Folder settings going bonkers!

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

My XP Home system recently started changing my folder
view settings. It is set to "remember each folder's view
settings". Some folders I like to have tiles and others
icons. I change them to what I want, but next time I go
there they changed back.

How do I fix this?

This setting has a default setting for the number of folders view settings
that it will remember. Go to the following website and look on Line 2, left
side. Click the "Increase limit folder view to 8000" link to download the
file. Double click the file to change the setting. This will effectively
double the default setting.

Yup, your right. Looking at 400 and seeing 4000.
