    File Explorer: Size all columns to fit (as a default view)

    Hi,

    To clarify your concern, we'd like to know if you're trying to change the width of all columns to fit their contents in a folder. If yes, kindly follow the steps below:

    • Open the folder with a details layout view that you want to change the width of columns to fit.
    • Click on the View tab.
    • Click on Size all columns to fit in the ribbon.

  3. Defaulting "size all columns to fit" globally/permanently in Windows 11?

    Hello.

    Even though your response is confusingly worded, I comprehend it. Just the same, I already know how to set "size all columns to fit" in individual folders and did not request reiteration. My biggest challenge, however, is that your suggestion to apply this setting as a default--seemingly using "Options > View > Apply to All Folders"--does NOT work because there is no clickable box within the view window that denotes columnar sizing. When I "Apply to All Folder" nothing changes and I must manually "size all columns to fit" in every folder.

    Perhaps I missed something implied by your response? Are you suggesting there IS a "size all columns to fit" setting within Options > View?
