Something has interfered with my system default settings. It must have been a program error. Most of my desktop folders now open in Tree View by default instead of Icon View. I can open them in Icon View by right-clicking and choosing Icon View under "Open" but the default stays at Tree View. How do I reset the default back to Icon View? Tommy.

Hi Tommy, You can try the following, but you have to do each folder individually. I do not know of a way to globally change such a setting, although in the back of my mind, I think there is some way, which you may have accidentally done & ended up with the undesired default. The following is from memory, since I'm not on an OS/2 machine right now, so you may need to make minor adjustments to these instructions. I think it should be pretty close. If something is way off, leave another posting on Computing.net & I'll make a point to get on an OS/2 machine & mark down the correct process to reply to you. 1. Right click on the folder's icon & select properties. 2. Click the "Menu" tab. 3. Click on "~open as" 4. Click on Properties. 5. From the "Default Action" drop down list, select the desired open behavior (~icon view). 5. Close each window by clicking on "save", "OK", "Apply" etc. I think you probably also have to right click on the desktop background & select "properties", then follow steps 2 through 5. You might even try this first, & see if all of your problems are solved without doing each other folder. Good Luck. Wally
