Sounds like the index to saved views is full. Try running my script,

I've written a script that will apply all the view customizations you
can set to all of a folder's
subfolders. Right-click the link below & save to your computer. The
zip file contains a readme

You can select a folder & configure its view settings, then those are
set to be inherited by all
subfolders (you have the option of saving or wiping out current saved
views) . You can set a
default for My Pics, another for My Music, and then a more generic
default for My Computer. The
inheritance settings are separate from the folder view itself -- for
example, you can set a
non-grouped view to be the default inheritance for My Computer, then
return My Computer to its
standard 'group by type' layout after running the script without
affecting the default view you have
set.

Interesting little utility; I'll grab it, for "just in case". However, the
time I ran into that problem, somewhere in the back of my head it seems like
I was able to increase the number of folders in the list, instead. I can't
recall the details now, but ...

-- Does your utility address the size of that store?
Seems like without increasing it, the problem will just re-occur down the
road?
-- What is it I'm trying to remember ;-)? I -think- the original # was
about 500?
-- Any chance you have a URL I could read to learn more about that?

TIA,
