In Windows 7, Windows 8 and Vista, folder view settings are saved for 5 different folder "templates" depending on their content. So open five folders, one each of the 5 types - containing General/Miscellaneous files, Documents, Pictures, Music, and Videos. Set the view to whatever you want, then open Folder Options from *that folder*. Folder Options is located under Tools Menu (Windows 7/Vista) or the View tab on the Ribbon (Windows 8). In Folder Options, switch to View tab and click "Apply to all folders". This should make it save the setting for all folders of that content type. Repeat this once for each of these five folders types.
