Windows Explorer - Details view

In Windows Explorer, I use the "Details" view exclusively. When
right-clicking the column headers in the details view, you are presented
with some options. One of them is: "Size all columns to fit". Is there
someway to make that selection the default?

I've tried setting it and then using the Folders Options to "Apply to all
folders", but that doesn't set that option.

Re: Windows Explorer - Details view

Hi,
I don't know how to make this setting stick, but the shortcut "Ctrl" + "+"
(on the numeric keypad) will resize columns to fit.

Hope this helps,
