[Windows XP] Is there a way to apply folder views to all sub-folders?

[Ralf Maximus]

Probably a simple thing, but I haven't found it yet...

Let's say I set up a folder to display as "Tiles" sorted by "Name".  If I drill down into a sub-folder, however, THAT folder still displays things as it always has.

How can I apply the current folder view to all child folders as well?

Windows offers a "use the current folder's view as the default" but that applies to ALL folders everywhere on the system.  No want.

Any ideas?

I've been trying to avoid the temptation to buy that -
offer of lifetime liscence for €22.50 ends tues midnight I guess (10th Oct)

I dont need it, I swear - I have dopus[8] - wonder can DOpus fulfill Ralphs request

Actually, i was just joking, XYplorer doesn't do exactly what ralph is asking for.
What it allows is for you to have a different view per tab.
Dopus probably can do that, i'm sure there isn't much it can't do

I imagine whatever magical hoochie does this would have to traverse the folder tree and modify each folder's entry in the registry.

No?

And while I recognize there are full replacements for Explorer and other wonderful swiss-army Explorer enhancements, I'd like to avoid adding a bunch of crap I'll never use just for the one feature I want.

Maybe there IS no easy way to do this.  Coding snack?
