First time “post-er” here!
I am using Windows XP professional. I have 3 questions below in order of importance to me:
1) how can I – when selecting, opening and saving files – set the “view menu” to always default to a “detail” view rather than an icon or list view. Currently, i get a mix of views, depending on which folder I open. I have tried repeatedly using several approaches to set the default to detail view, but with no success.
2) Is there a way to show folder sizes on the view menu as well without using some aftermarket utility program.
3) I use windows explorer for everything (I am a DOS 3.1 and xtree generation guy!) – is there a utility that you would recommend to use instead of windows explorer.
I don’t consider myself a computer guru, but I am more competent than 75% of computer users.
