From the "Folder Option" menu in Windows Explorer, I changed the default view for all folders to be Large Icons. As far as it goes, I am happy with it.
What I want to do now is, selectively use "Details" or "List" view for all directories inside
Is there some way to change the default view settings for the directory tree above while keeping the default view to be Large Icon?
What I have seen in this regard is as follows. I simply copied it and used it, so take it with a (block) grain of salt. I hope it does what you want.
=====
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams
"Settings"=hex:08,00,00,00,04,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,77,7e,13,73,35,cf,11,ae,\ 69,08,00,2b,2e,12,62,04,00,00,00,01,00,00,00,43,00,00,00
However, as you can see the data is in an [i]ncomprehensible format. The fifth hexadecimal value, "04" in my example, indicates the display style setting. Possible values:
01: Large Icons
02: Small Icons
03: List View
04: Details
