You mean Category View? ;) This is enabled by default, so if it's not enabled anymore, you did something wrong :P However, here is the tweak to enable it:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\WebView\BarricadedFolders]
"shell:ControlPanelFolder"=dword:00000001

I am talking about...>Start, Settings, Control Panel. click "View" and your options are list, details, small icons, large icons. I want the 'large icon' view. Is that also the same as what you are calling category view????? :whistle:

Hello, used the search and found exactely what I want.
Well, not the answer but the same doubt, which is a begining :) .
i have used Regshot to detect the applied changes from any view to large icons, which is the view I want, but the program says there are no changes.
So I don't know what else to do and ask the same thing as jbarnes007:

This is what I use, and I think it's what you're after:

; --- - - Sets classic control panel
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"ForceClassicControlPanel"=dword:00000001


Edit: But, does it show large icons I ponder?

Thanks, but that tweak just sets classic control panel, it has no influence on the size of the icons or the type of view.
