Guys,

anyone know howto script View|Details & Tools|Folder Options in Windows explorer?

Desired results:
+ Details View
+ Use Windows Classic Folders
+ Same Windows
+ Double Click
+ show all extensions
+ show hidden & superhidden files
etc.

Then I'd like these settings to "Apply to All Folders"

Anyone???

Found the keys too, am just unable to get it working without doing it manually.

Preferring the GPO option (M$ 2k3s env.)

create your own dude, fairly straight forward....

e.g.

CLASS USER
CATEGORY Custom_Add-ins
POLICY "Disable the Windows Tour"
KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Tour"
VALUENAME "RunCount"
VALUEON NUMERIC 0
END POLICY
END CATEGORY

Can do,

problem is that 2k3s policy needs "policy" in every key mentioned in the adm.
Putting the entries in the \policies section of the registry doesn't work ;(

; Set windows explorer view to details by default.
;
; In order to write the registry values succesfully before explorer.exe starts, the following 3 settings must be enabled in the GPO
; 1) Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Logon/Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon
; 2) Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Scripts/Run logon scripts synchronously
; 3) User Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/Scripts/Run logon scripts synchronously
;
; This has been testing using Windows XP Pro SP2
; -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

$explorerkey = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\"
