    How can I set global WinExplorer view?

    In Windows Explorer I only use the Details view with small icons, no pictures, blah, blah. Oh, and don't like the media columns that pop up when I dump audio files in an empty folder, etc.

    So far I haven't found a way to make ALL folders/files on the C:\ drive display as Customize > General Items in Details view and NEVER allow any other view. Right now I now have to manually set every folder.

    How can I set the OS to default all existing and future folders/files to my desired WinExplorer display?

    :)

    setting default view for Winodws Explorer Search Reasults

    Thank you for the detailed response. To change the search result's view from content to list, we suggest following the steps below:

    • Open the File Explorer and try to search for files.
    • In the toolbar, open the View tab and click List
      to change the view.
    • Once changed, close the File Explorer.
    • Open the File Explorer again and try to search to see if the setting has been retained.

    After performing the steps above, reply back to us so we can provide additional help.
