Viewing contents of folders

Could someone please tell me how to set a default view of the contents in
folders. It seems that Windows is insisting that the view of one of my
folders is always ICONS. It is a whole lot more convenient for the View to
be LIST. Despite the number of times I try to change that view to LIST,
every time I open up that folder the view remains ICONS. Thanks.

Try setting view to "list" in my documents,then do the same in all youre
folders my computer,pictures,music,etc

I have many of my folders including my computer, documents etc. already in
LIST view.

After selecting the List view, in Windows Explorer, click Tools>Folder
Options>View tab click Apply to All folders.
