Folders all opening the same size on the screen

I must have done it again. I had different folders opening a different size on the screen. Now they are all the same size. About 3/4 of the screen. I sometimes have 2 or 3 folders open at the same time. I do not want to have to tile them. Some maybe on top, some right. Depends on what I am doing. I used to click the X while holding down Ctrl (Win98), and remembered the size and shape. This does not seem to work in my WinXP. Nothing fatal here, just not what I want. Can someone help.

folders open in different size

Open a folder. Click Tools, Folder Options, View and click "Reset All Folders". (This resets all the folder view settings). Close the folder. Open and customize the folder again. Click View > Apply to All Folders. Please remember, XP will tend to forget the settings once the 400 mark is reached.

I have Remember each folders view settings checked, and Apply to all folders. If I take off Apply to all folders, View goes to Tiles and cannot remember the change. When I use Apply to all folders, Remember each folder settings does not work, and all folders use the same settings. I use Windows Classic Folders, and Open each folder in its own window.

I got this reg file and downloaded and installed.

Changed to "Reset all folders", changed the Folder Screen to what I want, and it stayed there. I guess it is fixed. Thanks.
