With folders, if you have the date or name listing problems only, then click on the consequtive
bar at the top of the displayed column (name/date), eg by clicking this bar it will sort the
columns' contents automatically, either ascending or descending. They are small horizontal bars
with the names Name, Size, Type, Changed and Attributes.
Closing the folder, will then have this setting saved permenantly (guaranteed)
To have this setting automatically available in all folders, try the "Like Current Folder"
option again (not guaranteed, as this is much like the folders' view-bug "Like Current Folder"
reported in the previous (here not printed) message:
In Explorer, on View context menu, changing the Large Icons to Small Icons or List or Details
will not have Windows saving this setting for all folders at once, eg in one go).

Thank you for your recent responses to my folder viewing problem. I wanted to keep the initial post short and did not elaborate but
both methods you guys suggested were tried before my first post. Neither worked. The problem began when my system started hanging up
after the installation of a Netgear network card. It never did cooperate and in fact ended up corrupting some of my files. The card
has been removed and the computer otherwise works fine. Mr Maas' response leads me to believe that possibly the Win-Registry file is
damaged. Would you guys agree? Again it just will not hold the view settings by name, only date. What next step would you recommend?
Thanks again.
