1. Folder Settings not remembered (14-01-2017)
Windows remembers each folder settings like viewing style (large thumbnails, list, details etc) and the sorting order (date- or name-wise). Sometimes, this is lost and is a nuisance for the user as each time he has to set these parameters to arrange the files in the order we like most.
Windows remembers by default the settings of 500 folders. If the number of folders you customize increases, it loses track. An option is to set the figure manually to a higher value, say 1000 or 2000
Here is a solution which works for Win 7.
a) Open Registry Editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Classes \ Local Settings \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Shell
b) In the right-hand side, right click > New > DWORD (32-bit value) and name it BagMRU Size
c) Right-click BagMRU Size and click Modify
d) Enter value, say, 1000 and re-boot
