Set Your Windows So They All Have the Same View

I found this in a few different places around the 'net - hopefully it's helpful:

Set Your Windows So They All Have the Same View

If you like to see lists of your files in a certain way - as large icons, for example, or with detailed information - Windows XP lets you set your view options for all your folders at once the way you want them. On the Tools menu in Windows Explorer, click Folder Options.
Click the View tab.
Set the view for this folder the way you want it to be for all folders.
Click Like Current Folder, then click Yes to confirm, and click OK.
Note: To access Windows Explorer, click Start, point to All Programs, and then click Windows Explorer.
