Hello

Is it possible when viewing through files in 'my computer' to view them all
in the same format i.e. as 'list'? Every time I go into another file folder
the view always seems to change to something else.

Hi Ash,

Open only one instance of Windows Explorer. Set it up to the view you want.
Click tools/folder options, then go to the view tab. Click "apply to all
folders", then on apply/ok.

Open Windows Explorer. Select a folder and set to list {or what you want}.
In Tools, select Folder Options and then the View tab. Click the button to
apply to all.

Thanks both. It's simple when you know how!
