Did you know that you can easily change the way files are displayed in a Microsoft Windows. First, open any window and click the down arrow next to the last icon. Then, select the view you would like to use. Once you have selected a view that you like you might want to set it so this window always displays in this view. To do that go to "Tools" on the window's menu bar and select "Folder Options" and then click the tab for "View" and scroll down the list looking for "Remember each folder's view settings" and check that box. Your file view will then remain the same.
