Vista Won’t Remember My Folder Views

*** Update ***
This fix is no longer valid. After a month of smooth sail­ing, we’re back to the same prob­lem. To our knowl­edge, there is cur­rently no fix that lasts longer than a month. This fix will last at least that long, but you’ll be back to the same prob­lem a month later. If you’ve tried some­thing that seems to show promise, please let us know with a com­ment. Thanks for reading.

Vista has made huge strides in becom­ing a bet­ter OS. If you’ve read any­thing we’ve writ­ten to date about Vista, it’s all bad. But since the release of Ser­vice Pack 1 and 2, Vista has really come into its own. Rarely do you see the dreaded Blue Screen of Death. This due to Vista’s abil­ity to selec­tively shut down and restart ser­vices before caus­ing crit­i­cal errors. The user inter­face is beau­ti­ful and some­what famil­iar to XP users. The abil­ity of Vista to repair itself has made leaps and bounds. But there is still one thing that is an absolute annoy­ance and frus­tra­tion, and that is Vista’s abil­ity to remem­ber folder views.
