Windows Explorer - File Details

[cottage]

I use Windows Explorer - Details View. I have a multi-level tree for all of my MP3 files. In these folders, in addition to the default details, I also want Title, Artist Name, Album Name & Genre. I know how to add these columns on a folder by folder basis.

Is there any way to add these detailed columns to a grouping of file folders. i.e. to change a batch of folders rather than change one at a time.

It would even be better if I could change the default columns for all sub folders under a top level folder. That way, every time a sub folder is added, it would have the 4 extra columns.

Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Try right clicking on the folder and see if "customization" tab has the
folder properties set for music.

Use this VBScript from MS-MVP Kieth Miller:

Folder View Master (no homepage anymore)
http://mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FVM3.zip or
http://members.home.nl/alsdewiedewee.../FVM3/FVM3.rar

Just follow its directions. If you want to master folder views too, just ask me.
