Hi,
In a folder or Explorer Window, first hit alt plus v folllowed by l to set
the current folder to a list view, then go to the menu, tools, folder
options, on the view tab, in the tree view of options make sure "remember
each folder's view settings is unchecked. 
Then hit alt l to set all folders to current view followed by y to confirm
and then tab to ok and press enter.
If you don't do this then settings are retained for each folder separately.

Jon

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Windows random settings generator strikes again

I had this problem recently and it struck again!
While in "my documents" I discovered that the items were listed in rows and
columns,
rather than just plain rows.  
What hocus-pockus must I go through to get it back to a single column list?
Thanks in advance.
