Windows Forum / Windows Vista / General Topics / October 2008How to change C: folder type
My C: folder type is set to Music, I guess, as it shows Artist etc columns. How can I change it to All Types, or Documents? I tried the tutorial, setting it first to NotSpecified and rebooting - no change, then Documents and rebooting -- still no change. There is no Customize option on C: or C:\Windows, so, according to the Tutorial, I changed C:\Users. C:\Users changed but not C: or C:\Windows.

Hello Dougham, Method Two in this tutorial will show you how to reset the folder view settings so that Vista will use the "All Items" folder template for all Windows Explorer windows. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html Hope this helps, Shawn SignatureBrink *There are no dumb questions, just the people that do not ask them.* '*VISTA FORUMS*' (http://www.vistax64.com) *Please post feedback to help others.* >Hello Dougham, > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Hope this helps, >Shawn Nice link... it's incredible that you have to go through that much pain to get Vista to do something that was automatic in previous versions of the OS. Microsoft really has it's head up it's butt on these dumbed down, automatic Vista changes. Agreed Bob. It is a lot to do, so I had made a REG download at that link to make it easy. I hope it is sorted out for you now. Shawn +Bob+;854428 Wrote: > > >Hello Dougham, > > > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > versions of the OS.
