    Windows Explorer: Saving not grouping permanently


    When want to save something or open a file, sometimes Windows Explorer groups the folders/files. Even ungroup it, the change is no permanently. How can I change it permanently? The same happen with the columnwidth, it will be lost next time.


    Thank you.

  2. Unable to save bookmarks and establish a permanent profile

    Hi Cathy,

    Thank you for bringing up your query on Microsoft Community.

    I realize this may be frustrating. I will check what best I can do to help you out and ensure you receive assistance as soon as possible.



    • What are you referring to when you say “I am unable to establish my permanent profile”?
    As an initial step, I suggest you to check if you can find the favorites in on the favorite folder on the computer.

    Follow the steps below:


    • Press Windows + R keys.

    • Key in %userprofile% and press Enter

    • Make sure you have a Favorites folder listed in the %userprofile% folder.

    Windows Explorer: Saving not grouping permanently

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
