Display always as large icons?

Hi,

I wish that all folders and files, no matter which type, gets
organized/displayed as large icons.

How can I do that? Am tired of it coming up as list view.

In advance thanks.

Hi Alf,

You can do this by resetting the folder view settings in Vista so it will remember the settings you make. Skip the "Remember each folder's view settings" at first (Step 27). When done just change the icons to large and close the window. When you open it again, it should be large. Now check the "Remember each folder's view settings". Method Two in this tutorial will show you how.

Windows Explorer Folder View settings

Thanks.

Maybe I did not do it correct, cus it now remembers the folder view on the
folders that I have manually put. But I want ALL folders to display as Large
Icons as default, so that I dont have to set it manually.

Is this possible?

In advance thanks.

Sorry Alf,

You may have to set each window you are in to "Large" icons.
