"Apply to all folder" view doesn't work much better in XP than in Win2K, how to fix?

This is my biggest, biggest issue with both Explorers in WinXP and 2K.
When I would set all folder to details view in Win98SE after adjusting
columns, etc., they'd STAY and stay permanently.
Win2K no matter which machine I was on on my contracts, or at home,
hardly ever worked properly despite setting the folder view to what I
wanted and unticking "Remember each folder's view settings". Becuase
of the multiple contracts I have in any given year, I know this is a
fault with Win2K otherwise it wouldn't be a problem no matter where I
was sent to work.
WinXP seems to last a little bit longer at my chosen setting but,
eventually, reverts back to the factory default of large icons. I'm
really fed up with this. I make full use of LFNs and often
differentiate files with the date at the end. Since I format the date
in yyyy.mm.dd, the files are all chronological but I make best and
most efficient use of LFNs and file saving in details view.
Is there a registry fix or other that _once_ and for _all_ completely
fixes this, pls? I do so hope so because it's the single most
frequent thing I have to stop and see to. It's very annoying.
Thanks much. I really appreciate any help with this in advance.
Cheers. :oD
