| | More Weird Windows Explorer Behaviour Getting Windows Explorer to remember customized folder options has been a huge pain in th a$$ from day one. I have tried all of the recommended "fixes", but nothing has worked over the long-term. At this point, I have pretty much learned to live with it. Today, Explorer decided to throw a new quirk into the mix. I have a Temp folder that I use for holding video and audio files temporarily during editing. As soon as I put a multimedia file in the directory, it changes from Document mode (which I want) to Picture/Video mode (which I don't want). Fine. I change the view setting back to Document. I then went to my Videos folder in My Documents, which is supposed display Picture/Video thumbnails, only to find that it had changed to Document mode. I reset it back to Picture/Video mode, did my editing, and returned to the Temp folder. It had decided to default back to Picture/Video mode. Crap. I reset it to Document mode. This reset my Videos folder settings. The two folders are located on different physical drives...changing view settings of one should have no impact on the other. Other folders containing videos that have been set to display in Picture/Video mode are not affected. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this particular behaviour. If so, did you find away to fix it? |
