3.) Other Tips for the Explorer-Views!



Use the column headings to change how the files in the file list are organized. For example, you can click the left side of a column heading to change the order the files and folders are displayed in, or you can click the right side to filter the files in different ways. (Note that column headings are available only in Details view.

This is where the contents of the current folder or library are displayed. If you type in the search box to find a file, only the files that match your current view (including files in subfolders) will appear.

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




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}
