Gadgetwise Blog: Q&A: Customize Folders in Windows 7

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 19 September 2012 | 11.39

In Windows 7, when I arrange a folder the way I like it with Details view, is there a way to make all my other folders automatically look the same way by default?

Windows 7 offers a way to save personalized folder settings as a default for all your other folders of the same type. So, those designated as "Pictures" folders will all use the same settings and so forth.

Windows 7 has five different folder types: General items, Documents, Pictures, Videos and Music. These folder types show certain information about the files inside, like "Album" for a Music folder or "Date modified" for a Documents folder. To see or change a folder's type, right-click on it and select Properties. In the Properties box, click the Customize tab. Under "Optimize this folder for," use the drop-down menu to select the folder type you want to use and click O.K.

When you have selected the type of folder you want to use, open the folder and select the View (Details, in this case) from the "Change your view" menu at the top of the folder window. You can rearrange the columns of information within a folder window (like Name, Size, Type and so on) by clicking on a column header and dragging it to a new position.

You can remove column categories by right-clicking on a column header and removing the checkbox next to a column name in the list. If you want to add additional information to your columns, (like "Date created") right click a column header, select More from the drop-down menu and turn on the checkboxes next to the columns you want to display. Clicking on a column header sorts the folder items in that order and clicking the header again will reverse-sort the list.

When you are satisfied with the folder's look, go to the Organize menu in the folder's window and select "Folder and search options." In the folder's Options box, select the View tab, click the "Apply to folders" button and hit the O.K. button. Your other folders of the same type should now look like the folder you just customized. Microsoft has more information here.
