Default Changing "File View" Defaults in Windows 2000

I need Windows Explorer to show details.

When I turn off the PC, next time I turn it on,
it is automatically reset to showing icons.
Anyone know a way to change the default view so
that I can avoid these resetting steps each time?

Right now, I'm doing it manually like this....

Open Windows Explorer. Click on VIEW DETAILS.
Then click on TOOLS FOLDER OPTIONS VIEW
(tab) LIKE CURRENT FOLDER YES OK.

Thanks.

More or less... LOL!!!



With win explorer open, change to details, like you like.

Up top: click file, and then folder options.
Click the view tab. In the upper left, click
"apply to all folders".

See if that helps.
