    Explorer view grouping setting keeps reverting !?

    For me I change the Downloads folder to list view, then I change grouping to none and sorting to sorting to none.
    Then I go to View > Options > View > Apply to All folders and then it's saved and never changes the view.

    Is this Downloads? The folder now has its own FolderType (i.e. view template). Try the follwing:
    1. Open Explorer to the Downloads folder, turn off grouping & set all other view options to your liking.
    2. From the View tab, select Folder Options, then execute Apply to Folders from the View tab in the Folder Options dialog:
