Change display model folder for all folders in Windows 10 -

If you use the File Explorer, you may be already knowing he has a nice feature to remember each folder view setting. Unfortunately, he has not explained very well by Microsoft and some changes have been made in modern versions of Windows that make it even more confusing for end users. We get this question from our readers - is it possible to File Explorer set a desired view for all folders, then remember in Windows 10? Let's see how this can be done

File Explorer in Windows 10 folder has five models -. General articles, documents, photos, music and videos. When you see the Customize tab of a library or folder, you'll see these models. This adds more flexibility to view your personal data.

For example, even if you prefer, for example, the List view documents, you might want your music library to display detail view and you want your photos and video libraries to be in views based icons such as medium, large or large additional icons. So for each model file, Explorer stores its settings individually.

Of course, to change the view for all models to the one you want, you need to "Apply to folders" 5 times, once for each model.

You must do the following

1. Open these five folders in Explorer :.

    C:  Users C:  Users    Documents C:  Users    Music C:  Users    Pictures C:  Users    Videos 

   

2. in each of these cases, set the desired to display.
3. Now you need to open Folder Options in each of these 5 Explorer windows. Click the Folder Options button in the Ribbon View tab. If Ribbon disabled in Windows 10, press Alt + T on your keyboard to open the Tools menu and then open Folder Options.
4. Go to the View tab and click the "Apply to folders". Doing this affects only records one of five models - which is why you need to do 5 times for each of the 5 above records.
5. windows Now close all open files in Explorer and reopen. You should have the desired view you set.

Note that despite the setting of these views, the browser remembers the views of individual files that you change later, after clicking "Apply to folders". For example, if you set Pictures folder Grandes additional icons then click "Apply to folders" then by default, all folders containing photos will now see additional icons Grandes. But if you were to change one of your specific folders containing pictures to medium icons, the explorer will remember that view for that particular folder.

In addition, when you access to all records of their libraries, the files will always follow the opinion of the parent library. So if you directly open the My Documents folder in C: Users Documents, then it will show you the view you have set. But if you access the same file from the document library, it will show in the view that you use to the Documents Library.

To change the display model library, you must do the following.

1. Open the required library.
2. Click the Manage tab Library Tools.
3. Select the desired model view in the library Optimize for drop down list.

Finally, special folders like the Recycle Bin and this PC have their own views that remembers Explorer.

Now you know everything you need to change the folder view model for all folders in Windows 10.
