Re: Folder view problem

Just to say that I have been using *FolderViewMaster v3.1* today and it has
worked a treat.

One for the *must have* list
Many thanks to all concerned.

See if this is what you want, I use it for my music folders. The script is
in the zip file.

FolderViewMaster v3.1

This script allows the user to customize a folder view and then have that
view applied as a template for all its subfolders and any new folders
created within the folder. It will prompt you to select a folder, then
pause while you set everything to your liking: folder type, icon style,
choose details, column order, column width, etc. When you resume the
script, these view settings are applied as a template for that folder's
subfolders. When it is completed this process you will have the
opportunity to select another folder for processing. If a folder has
already been processed it will not be affected by processing its parent.
This allows you to apply one view to My Music and all its subfolders,
another to My Pictures and all its subfolders, and then apply more general
view to My Documents that would affect all subfolders except My Music and
My Pictures. When selecting a folder, you will also have the option to
block selected subfolders of that folder from being processed. This
allows you the option of preserving previously saved views.

Each time this script is run, it will create a folder with the name
YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS, indicating the date and time the script was run. Within
this folder will be:

Undo.reg - a file containing all saved views and any other values modified
during the run. Merge this file to undo all changes made.

One or more files named: FolderTemplate-<foldername>-Bag<#>.reg

These are reg files that contain the template settings. They can be handy
if wish to know which 'Bag<#>\Inherit' key contains template info.
Advanced users can then edit this key so that only certain settings are
inherited.

3.0 -> 3.1
Refined code so that Internet Explorer windows are ignored & can remain
open during run.

Thanks to David Candy, Kelly Theriot, and the folks at SysInternals for
RegMon.
