Just to tell you Thank You as I was very upset by the default Vista behaviour and you give me a solution which works as I wish!

I use Basta computing zmover 4.1. Works with all windows. I like to have smaller explorer windows, it makes drag and drop, and organizing files much easier.

I donnot know what the GUID is?
Which level is it?
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\4\Shell\{5C4F28B5-F869-4E84-8E60-F11DB97C5CC7}].
Is it: “5C4F28B5-F869-4E84-8E60-F11DB97C5CC7″ ?

Thanks in advance… Pete

I officially *hate* the way Vista handles this. I tried this and other methods but everything ends up looking wrong.. I just gave up

It looks like this post might be a little old but I still found it on Google when I searched for this exact problem.

Thanks a bunch for the fix, it’s been absolutely infuriating to have all of my new folders created as picture folders since I got my laptop.

It works perfectly for all “normal” folders. But for example Folders that contain images (e.g. C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper or C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures) are not display the way i configured the first folder (detail view). Is there any way to aply the dfault settings here, too?

Martin – In the list of registry keys to be deleted, you list the same one twice. If I’m not mistaken, the second one should be:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU
