    File Explorer > Folder Type Template?


    For the most part, I do not mind Explorer's autodetecting the folder type (Music, Videos, etc). However, one thing that I miss from Windows 7 is being able to set the "style" for a folder type... where I could choose to display certain columns and have Explorer display those columns for all folders of that category.

    Does anyone know of a way to set the defaults for a folder category?

    Thanks

    :)

    tranferring files from n73 to pc

    When you installed Yahoo, it has taken "ownership" (associated it self with) certain file types.

    You can change the file associations in Windows Explorer (Tools -> Folder options... -> File Types -> select a file type -> Change).

    Open File Explorer > select one of the folders ( Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music etc etc) > click View at the top > click Add columns > click Choose columns > scroll to find the item you want........
    Example : I'll choose Date Modified
    Check the box in front of Date Modified > click Move UP button > keep clicking the button until Date Modified is where you want > click OK when done.

    It was in the same location, I just missed it and then assumed it had been (re-)moved.

    Thanks again.
