    View tab in file explorer selects different views when being hovered over with cursor in win10


    Title pretty much says it, how do I make it to where it only selects view without it being hovered over? Note that folders must be clicked on twice and it is only the view tab that is doing this. Please help. Video included of whats going on.Gyazo gif

    File Explorer Icons in View tab

    The View tab in File Explorer shows the Small Icon choice when viewing file lists. But it unselects itself when I view lists in different folders.
    The automatic-deselection process doesn’t happen with other icons I’ve selected (the Preview Icon, for example).

    How do I get the icon to always remain selected for the file list in any folder I might open?

    Moved from: Office / Unknown/other / Windows 10 / Office 365 Home
