4. Now right-click on "Shell" key and select "New -> Key" option. Give the new key name of Bags

5. Now right-click on "Bags" key and select "New -> Key" option. Give the new key name ofAllFolders

6. Again right-click on "AllFolders" key and select "New -> Key" option. Give the new key name ofShell

7. Now click on this new "Shell" key and in right-side pane, create a new String value and give it name of FolderType and set its value to NotSpecified



8. That's it. Either restart your system or log off and now Windows will no longer reset/change your custom folder view type settings.
