Folder view in Explorer

I've got XP Pro on my desktop and XP Home on my laptop.

On the laptop I can't get the folder view (folder tree in
left pane) to stick when I click "Apply to all folders"
under view options.
It works in XP PRo. Am I missing something?

From Ramesh's web site:
XP forgets your folder view settings?

Your view settings or customizations for a folder are lost or incorrect

Thx for the info.
Makes one wonder why they didn't increase it when more than
a few people asked the question?

You're welcome.
