Windows Explorer - Folder Columns Defaults

CrusaderXV · Jun 30, 2009

I want to include "length" in the Windows Explorer file folders for Music since I need this to select the correct length of music for video editing/post production. I added "length" from the menu, but on returning later it was gone and what appears to be the default setting was back. I had also removed a column at the same time, but it returned when I revisited. The question? I need to know where to change the default settings for the columns and how to ensure that changes I make from the menu remain saved. I have Windows Vista Home Premium 64bit as my OS if that helps. I'm new to the Forum so I hope I have submitted this correctly.

Hello CrusaderXV, and welcome to Vista Forums.

Applying METHOD TWO in the tutorial below will reset Vista's folder views for you to have Vista remember your settings for when the window was last closed.
