GLOBAL VIEW OPTIONS IN EXPLORER

If you have Windows 98/ME, or Windows 95 with Internet Explorer 4.x or higher installed on your system, you gain the ability to apply Windows Explorer viewing options globally on all your folders. For example, say that you would always like to view your folders with Large Icons. Here's how you do it: first open up any folder window and set the desired viewing options. Next, click on the Folder Options item on the Tools Menu (its the Options item of the View menu in Win95.) Then click on the View tab. Click on "Like Current Folder", click on Yes to confirm this is what you want to do, and then click on OK. Now all your folder windows will display the same way.
