Vista - Apply column headings setting in Windows Explorer to all directory

08-15-2008

Hello all,

The columns in the directory heading are set for each directory
individually. Is there a place i can set so that the setting in one
folder/directory applies to all.

E.g. A typical default settings contain coulumn headings like 'Tags',
'Rating', etc, none of which i like. Is there a way to override this default
headings and replace it with other settings for ALL folders/directories in
one fell swoop.

Thanx in advance,

L&L

It's done by Vista's recognition of the folder type - but if you want it
to be effective have a look at
Windows Explorer Folder View settings
