It’s going to take a while to apply the folder layout for all types of files but generally speaking, you need only set the default layout for audio, video, document, and image folders. Click the ‘Apply to Folders’ button, and all folders with that particular type of file will display them the same way. Select the ‘View’ tab on the Folder Options window. Once you’re done, go to the View tab and click the Options button. Go to the View tab and select how you want the folder to show you images, add/remove columns if you’ve enabled them, and make any other change you want. Open a folder with, for example, images in it. This means the folder layout you set for a folder with audio files in it will not be applied to a folder with images in it. When you set the default layout for a folder, it’s for a folder type. You might have noticed that if you have a folder with audio files, there will be a Play tab. File Explorer recognizes the types of files that are in a folder, and it optimizes the folder view accordingly. Before you start out, you need to understand how folder layouts are set.
