Hi guys I'm trying to change my folder view to show file extensions, hidden files, and protected operating system files. I have found how to do this in the control panel. Is it possible to apply this individually rather than to all folders.

As each folder has an "organize" option, where you can change the folder viewat "folder and search options" and decide whether you will extend these settings to all folders of the same type or not, I would assume that if you click on "Ok" after your changes without clicking on "Apply to folders", you will have set your preferences only for this individual folder. (What a sentence -!) If you change settings via Control Panel, it's obvious that those will be applied to all folders and you must change individual settings after that or your settings will be overwritten by the general changes.Mobile AMD64 3000+, VIA Apollo K8T800 chipset, 1 G RAM, ATIRadeonMobility 9700, 20x DVDRW, C:XPSP3 (55G),D:WIN7 (25G),F:DATA (250G)
