How do I get Explorer to remember to always show my files in list view? I turned off 'Remember every folder's view settings', and then selected List View, but now whenever I open explorer, it is back to the large icon view. How do I make it keep the view I select?

After you get the folder to look how you want all of them to look:

Tools > Folder Options > View[tab] > Folder Views[section] > Like Current Folder[button]
