I cannot get this set right. I can set the flat file columns in preferences and that works. But I have a folder format for a particular folder that uses the 2 columns from preferences but adds three other columns. Those other columns show up for that one path but even if I save the folder format for that path it will not remember the column size I set. I try to set it to Auto but it keeps reverting to a numeric value. I cannot even save a new numeric value. I tried looking at the source of the format and it says flat view and "modified by command set SORTBY=size". The button used to go to that folder contains:
Go "C:\Users\Lou\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5"
set FLATVIEW=MixedNoFolders
set SORTBY=size
