Windows 10: How do I turn off extended tiles?

How do I turn off extended tiles in Windows Explorer. One of my computers has tiles as the view option when you right click in "devices and drives". the other computer has extended tiles as the option not tiles. I'm not sure how this happened. How do I return to the default state of tiles?

Right now in this window all my HD’s are lining up vertically to the left and are not displaying the free space and total space of the HD. Actually that’s what I’m trying to return to and I’m assuming extended tiles is causing this problem.


thanks,

:)

Turn off GPRS in Nokia 7230

Hi,



How do I turn off GPRS or Data Roaming on the Nokia 7230?

I am overseas for an extended period of time and I am getting charged for Data Roaming but I don't know how to turn this off!



The manual says there is a When Needed or Always Online option but none to turn it off.



Please help!



Thank you.

 

None of my Win10 computers have Extended Tiles in File Explorer [renamed starting with Win8 from Windows Explorer of Win7 and earlier], only Tiles and several choices of icon sizes, Content and Details.

 

You're absolutely right. That's why I'd like to return to the default state. I'm not sure how this happened. I sure didn't do it on purpose.

 

Perhaps some third-party software/program did it?

 

Possibly, seems to be a recurring theme in google searches for this problem. Also seems to pre-date Windows 10. One 'nuclear' reset option that gets mentioned often is...

That's my guess. After it was fixed I ran this file disableautoarrange.reg This restores a old feature in Win 7+8 that disables auto-arrange in a folder so you can move icons like pics to different spots in the folder. This feature is lost in Win 10 and this reg fix restores it. It does cause a few other problems, so I only run that reg key file when I want that feature and then run undo.reg to return to the default state.

I found out that it does change titles to extended titles in the process. Fortunately the undo.reg does change it all back so I don't' have extended tiles any more. So everything is working just fine now and I still can use that disable folder reg key file

 

Thanks this fixed the problem and it was very easy to change back to my minimal custom settings.
