Help!

We are using Citrix PS4 on Win 2003 servers. We have iexplore.exe published (Internet Explorer) and the default view for it is thumbnail/large icons (also in Windows Explorer/My Computer as well).

Is there somewhere in the registry or in GP that I can change the default view for users to be list instead of these large icons?

I have used regmon and about 15 keys get accessed changing the view from the toolbar!!


Have anyone else been able to do this?

Thanks

As far as i know there isn't gp for this. If i remember well, the view style is stored here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
What i usually do is set it like i want then export the key but this key contains a lot of other settings.

You can't really get around to changing the settings until the settings are created. I do not know where these come from, but this is a rexx script to do the throbber. The byte that it changes also controls other settings in the UI.

This is a regina rexx script, using Patric McPhee's w32util.dll at http://home.interlog...m/software.html
