Classic Shell: Forum

Firstly thanks for making this great utility available

I wonder if this is a Windows issue, or if Classic Shell has some bearing on it. I find that Explorer Folder View settings are often not stored with the folder e.g. if I change the view for one folder to Large Icons, then some other folders change too, and there is no consistency in this behaviour.

For whatever reason, it's often the case that changing the Folder View for one folder will change it for others too.

I have done a fair bit of Google research on this and have not yet found a solution, but I wonder if you were aware of this being an issue with Classic Shell at all? Have just installed 4.1.0 and will check if it still happens.

Cheers
Richard

I've sorted it - it's a quirk of Windows 7, that if a folder is displayed by clicking a Library or other link, folder customisations are not shown (go figure) >:|

Yes unfortunately that's By Design. Library view overrides all per-folder/per-template folder views and customizations.
