Do you mean want your folder's like this.

Press the blue square button on the bar at the top of the window the one next to the folders button and select Thumbnail.
If you want the album cover on the thumbnail/folder right click>properties>customise>choose picture.

Use the same blue button and choose from the different views.

Thumbnail
Tiles
Icons
List
Details

yes i know that but to do it by hand one by one for over 300 folders is time consuming

no way to set it back to defualt ?

Go up one level and right click on the folder, go to the customization tab, pick what you want, and check "apply to all subfolders" and apply

 

[MrKuenning]

Or tools/folder option/view/apply to all folders

also if you're folders stop remembering their custom view, use tweak ui to extend the amount of remembered views. I think theres also a registry hack too.


or use directory opus and stand at awe at it's amazing awesomeness. just had to plug that in since it's customizable to the very end. and if you do use it, the default layout isn't that great. till you customize it to the very end.
