    Hello, Brink!
    I am a brand new forum-user stuck in a conundrum regarding the "folder-views", more specifically, the view known as "List". After the recent Features Update (which was released this year around in December(?)), upon updating my OS I found that my List layout had changed dramatically, with giant blocks of empty space being extended in-between these vertical rows of miscellaneous files. This is of great concern with me because it nullifies the one purpose I found with the List-view in that it was compact and I did not have trouble finding any files that way. You may refer to the equal question i had posted on the Microsoft Community Forums, where, thus far, I have not been able to find a solution to this problem:

    Alternatively I may upload the exhibits here in case of any issues with the hyperlink:

    now looks like this:

    Any suggestions towards fixing this problem, would be greatly appreciated as I would prefer to keep the latest OS update, rather than risk getting exposed due to an outdated OS.

    - Best Regards!

    Hello Mailer, and welcome to Ten Forums.

    I'm afraid that I don't know of a way yet to change this either. *Sad
