Hope that makes sense.

Hi Sheila,

This is a two part solution.

First:
You will need to reset the folder view settings so Vista will remember your folder setting changes correctly. Method Two in this tutorial will show you how. The download is the easiest way.

Windows Explorer Folder View settings


Second:
This tutorial will show you how to apply the folder template changes to all the same folder types.

Windows Explorer - Folder Type Templates
