Hi there,


is there a way to make exlporer open search results always in detail view? Mine opens sometimes in 'content' view.

Thanks!

Once you open them, change the view to Details and close it, it should save the view. Mine does at least. I am talking about the window that opens when you click "See more results" from the Classic Start Menu.

Thanks. I was referring to the new window opened through Classic explorer, not Start menu.

Tried that, btw., but seems to sometimes keep coming back in wrong view.

Classic Explorer is only a plugin for Windows Explorer. It does not modify search in any way. To permanently set Explorer views, see this article: http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-set-a-fo ... rge-icons/

Great, never knew that!

Since you seem to know a lot about Win10: after search for a file or folder in the explorer, the results are listed. But if you click on eg. a map, the map is not opened directly, but stil in the 'result-mode' (I don't see the path but stil 'search results'). Annoying. Is there a way to make Windows open the folder directly?

Start menu does indeed open a folder directly.

Of course I can right click and choose 'open in new window', but that's annoying.

Thanks.
