File Explorer Folder Type Template

File Explorer Folder Type Template

For the most part, I do not mind Explorers autodetecting the folder type (Music, Videos, etc). However, one thing that I miss from Windows 7 is being able to set the "style" for a folder type... where I could choose to display certain columns and have Explorer display those columns for all folders of that category.

Does anyone know of a way to set the defaults for a folder category?

Thanks

try at the very top of win exporer there is a view then select there what ever you like let me know if it helps

Open File Explorer > select one of the folders ( Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music etc etc) > click View at the top > click Add columns > click Choose columns > scroll to find the item you want........
Example : Ill choose Date Modified
Check the box in front of Date Modified > click Move UP button > keep clicking the button until Date Modified is where you want > click OK when done.

It was in the same location, I just missed it and then assumed it had been (re-)moved.

Thanks again.
