Generally speaking you can set 1 folder to view with the 'Large Icons' setting, and then tell File Explorer that you want all folders to look the same. I want this setting so that when I view a folder full of images, I can see their thumbnails. Before I upgraded to Windows 10, my folder settings all looked the same (using Large Icons). I would like to know how to change the default settings in File Explorer so that my icon view is set for Large Icons. I just upgraded to Windows 10 and the File Explorer (previously Windows Explorer) looks much different than it did previously.
