    Ungrouping downloads folder doesn't save view even when applying to folders


    I have tried everything I've found online... which is only one option. But the Downloads folder in explorer constantly groups things by date. I set the group by option to none and then I go to the view options and use the "Apply to folder" options just like every forum topic I can find says to do. But it just immediately resets every time.Here is a link to a video that shows it happening example

    I swear i saw this somewhere

    It's not what you think, tools > folder options > view.
    That's for existing folders only , i need to change the default view setting for when you create a new folder !

    I already applied the Win7 Full Row Mod

    Change Folder View Layout in Windows 10


    "uhm that method does not work. i want to set folder view as List as default instead Details for all folders"
    Did you download and run Brink's .bat file in Step 1 ? Lacking that, look at the screens in post 3. In Step 5 'folders of this type' defaults to each of the Windows templates for Pictures, Music, etc. If you want ALL folders to have the same List view, r-click any folder in each of the 5 folders under This PC (Desktop does not apply) and hit 'Customize this folder'. Set to 'Optimize this folder for General Items". Then follow the screen in post 3 using List instead of Details in Step 1 and you should be good to go.
