How do I... on Windows XP?

[GetInMyFatBelly]

All my folders always open with my icons view at "Tiles" size mode, I would like all them to open with my icons at "Icons" size. How do I change this for all, without going into every folder and selecting View, then Icons at the top of the screen?
Thanks...

right click inside folder ->view->icons

now go to tools->folder options->view->like current folder 🙂

Great, thanks for the quick responses.
Now I have another one for you, I had my movies and videos in their folders with the thumbnail view that would show the first shot. For some reason, they all now have either the ATI MMC icon or the WMP icon, none show the first scene. Do you know how to fix this back to the correct image (the first shot of the video)? This happened on a friends computer also for photos and wouldn't come back until she reinstalled the OS. I don't want to have to do that.
Thanks....

i believe it made icons for the movie files rather than thumbnails. what you can do is set that folder to thumbnails and it will stay that way. the others will continue to be icons.
