    File explorer settings change on their own.


    If I set a specific folder to sort by date modified, it remains that way, unless I open a subfolder, then it resets to sort by name on return. Why does Windows no longer support individual locked settings for folders anymore? I know XP and 7 supported this, and you could set a maximum number of folder's settings saved. I remember the 50,000 folder limit. Only a few folders need unique settings, but 10 doesn't support this anymore, or this now hidden ****? I have Pro 64-bit.
