    I can only point you fine gents to the link in my sig - Directory Opus. Once tried you'll wonder why people put up with explorer - you can play with it for 60 days for nowt..

    does it replace explorer or something? or is it a stand alone app you gotta launch every time?

    Both - you can configure it to replace explorer (although explorer still runs it comes up instead when sensible) or not. opening a new file lister is as simple as double clicking on the desktop or pressing windows+E

    Re: How can i get flipping Vista's Folder View To Stick!!!

    I've made the steps to increase the folder cache as the tutorial said, and now Vista doesn't remember the window sizes. So I have to maximize the folder window every time I open it. Great.

    Edit: false alarm. And I can't find the 'Delete post' button. Though it says 'Edit/Delete' on the edit button.

    http://qttabbar.wikidot.com/qttabbar I find this better than directory opus etc for my needs.

    gave up on getting vistas folder view settings to stick, maybe it's fixed in windows 7 ?
