Save Vidw Specific Folder Won't Change
Apr 5, 2010
I was wondering if there was any way to save the view type of each folder. Example: I have my music folder in list view as its easy to scroll down through to choose, but I like my picture folder in the large icon view so I can see each picture better. The problem is that it seems to change the view of all the folders when I change one, and sometimes I open a folder and get a completely random view type that I never use, like extra large. I there a way to save a view to a specific folder so it wont change?

I would like to set some key folders to have icons that identify what is inside. So my Windows install folder would show a folder with the Windows logo in front. (I have the ICO for that.) But how do you do that? I found a folder that has such a specific icon, but I wasn't successful getting it to work. My example used an icon inside an EXE. My icon is a stand-alone ICO.

I am having the same re-naming issue with Vista that i saw someone else had on this forum some time ago. I can't find the original posting but I don't think it was ever properly resolved.
The Problem:
I want to arrange a folder of different photos in a specific order (that is relevant to me) and then to rename the files so that they have a common name and are also numbered sequentially in the order i have put them in.

You know when you download something and that box comes up and asks you where you want to save? How do you change the destination if you check the little box that says "always save to this location"?

How do I open an email message in Wndows Mail. There appears to be no open button? It also seems rather complicated to save into the Drafts folder (with all the changing of directories).

All of a sudden I'm getting an error message saying I don't have permission to save files in the Download folder in Vista Ultimate SP1, using IE 7, and to contact the administrator for permission. I'm the only one using the puter and it's never done this before today. What went wrong and how do I fix it?

Do you have any useful links to resources to save attachments with a script or rule in windows mail. What I have seen, there is only an option to move the message to a special folder in the windows mail rules

I have Windows Vista Ultimate. Quite often I try to change or update the names of a folder, and Vista would not let me allow, and I get dialog boxes telling me that I cannot have access, or do not have persmission, etc, and I get these denials even after I closed all the other files. It gets annoying that I get the "NO" after I already typed the new names. I am the only person who have access to this home PC. How can I change this so the computer will let me change names anytime I want to?

I can't "see" C:UsersusernameAppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsCookies unless I uncheck 'Hide protected operating system files' in folder options. Why would Vista consider the contents of this folder operating system files? How do I change the Hidden attribute for for this folder?

I would like to change the "store folder" for my windows live mail to another computer on my local network. However as soon as I cross into the LAN, the "ok" button to select a folder is grayed out. My goal is to have my XP desktop store my email and calendar items, and then access, view and update from my Vista laptop.

I really need to change a system file called 'hosts'. I've changed it many times before, but today I'm not allowed. I access the file, make a very small change, then try to save it just by leaving the path as is. Then I get a message that says "Cannot save file, check path.." But I haven't changed the path.

Something has changed in my Home Premium system such that I can no longer save to the desktop! When I try, I get an error message stating " You don't have permission to save in this location." I do not recall changing ANY permissions to prevent this. I did have a problem installing Office Home 2007 and maybe that caused a change. Where do I need to go to set the permission back to allow me to save to the desktop?

Can anyone tell me if I can change the templates used to display folders in Vista.
I've searched the forums and discovered plenty of tutorials about the problem of Vista remembering the template used and how to change which template is used.
But that is not what I want. I actually want to change the template itself (In an ideal world I'd like to create new templates), but at the minimum I'd like to change what the existing templates show.
For example, I have a number of Sound FX files and for those, I'd like the template to show the length of the clip. Similarly, I do not use Ratings, and have no use for them or Genres or track numbers, but I would like file size. For Images, I again never use Ratings, or tags (I use Adobe Lightroom to catalog my images as I have thousands) but I would like to see file type and modification date!

I accidentally changed my user folder shortcut name in Windows Explorer under Desktop.
It was changed when I tried to save a file to the desktop and accidentally create new folder while highlight the user folder shortcut. It might be a bug in the system, since I can’t duplicate the change again.
I have tried to rename it but nothing happens.
I deleted it but it came back after refresh (F5).
There is no property available since this is a special folder or shortcut like network shortcut in Windows Explorer.
I briefly went through the registry and search for ‘shell’ related value but find none to resolve the issue. Did the search on Google and this forum, I have found nothing related to this problem. Maybe I use the wrong word for the search. Does anybody know how to reverse the change or edit in the registry?

How much hard disk space do I need to burn a disc?
If you're using the Live File System format, you don't need to allocate any additional space to burn your disc, since each file is written to the disc as you go.
If you are creating a Mastered disc, however, Windows needs to create a complete "image" of the disc before it is burned. This disc image can be as large as the maximum capacity of the disc you are creating—you might need 650 megabytes (MB) on your hard disk to create a CD-R, or 4.7 gigabytes (GB) to create a DVD-R.
Can I choose where the disc image is stored?
Yes, if you have more than one hard disk installed in your computer, you can specify which disk is used to create your disc image. Here's how:
1. Open Computer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Computer.
2. Right-click the drive that is your disc burner, and then click Properties.
3. Click the Recording tab, and then click your desired drive from the drive menu. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

I have recently logged on to my computer to find that all of the shortcut Icons that overlap the program icons have changed, and also that all my folder icons have also changed as well as in the start menu. See attachments for images. To try and fix the Shortcut Icons i have installed FxVisor32 for 32-bit Vista. I tried to change all the icons back but recieved the following error message. which stopped me from changing it. Note i am running 32bit Vista home premium.Code:See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

In particular, when saving an email attachement, in this case a word file, the default location is the Documents folder. How could I change this in Vista so that whenever I do a Save As, it points to my, lets say, Temp folder instead?

Awhile back I was given instructions on how to change the folder standard green folders to new pink folders. Well, my computer crashed out and I had to get a new hard drive. I tried to follow the instructions from the previously solved thread, but I can not find the "desktop.ini". When I go to the users folder inside my choices are Administrator and Public and I can not find the "desktop.ini" file. I have windows vista.

First, I added the three programs in the pic to the start up folder, but they get blocked. I have to manually run each one and then accept the UAC. So, I next tried adding to the task scheduler and running at log on, but they still bring up the UAC.
IS there a way to accomplish this for these programs?

I do support in a smallish/mid-sized business, and for the first time ever we are considering trying out a 64-bit windows client for our 3d cad operator. I've never had any experience with a 64 bit OS before, but I need to try to test it out and make sure it is compatible with our software and systems here. We have a 2000/2003 mixed-mode AD domain with exchange 2007 and terminal servers. A couple of our 2003 servers are already 64-bit.
- What if anything should I be concerned about? Any gotchas?
- Would it be wise to test this in a virtual machine before spending money on the hardware and then finding out it may not be feasible?
- Is there any other specific advice I should follow?
