Thank you for your answer. But that only means I can apply the 'same'
scheme
to all the sub folders. As you know, Windows chooses different schemes
for
folders with defferent file types. If I do so, this is no longer
applied.

So, basically, there's no way to change the default view schemes that
Windows Explorer chooses for different types of folders?
