    Folder view issue


    I want my folders (and subfolders) to stay in List view but they keep changing to Details view.

    I have tried View>Options>Apply to Folders many times but it doesn't stick.

    Any suggestions?

    :)

    Folder Icons Changing in Windows 10

    I had a similar issue in W8.1 but was able to correct it in the control panel. Now I'm experiencing

    an issue when I view a folder and change the view from list to large icons, close the folder and come back to it at another time and the view has switched back to list. What can I do to keep the folders (all folders) in large icon view? It's probably a setting
    I'm missing somewhere but I can't seem to find it.

    Clicking on the top folder opens it. Clicking on the symbol > to the right of the Folder lists the contents underneath it.
