2.) Grouping Solution from a Q-Dir User for Download Folder Explorer and Q-Dir!

Info from Quad-Explorer User!



It should be permanent. (or at least persist until you change it again).

Are you always navigating to the folder the same way? This PC > Downloads can have a different saved view than This PC > C: > Users > > Downloads. And each path can save different settings for Explorer windows vs. Common Dialogs.

Otherwise, some troubleshooting is in order. Ever used PowerShell? You can launch a PowerShell window by right-clicking Start or pressing Winkey+X and selecting Windows PowerShell. Then copy & paste the following command. It will return a number indicationg the total # of saved views:
Code:

((gp "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU").Nodeslots).count

The run this command to see if you have any custom templates saved:
Code:

test-path 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Defaults'

If that returns 'True', run the following command and copy & paste the results in your reply:
Code:

(gi 'HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Defaults').GetValueNames() |
%{(gp "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderTypes\$_").CanonicalName}
