Windows 7 does a pretty good job at analyzing the content of a folder to determine how it should display the files. 98% of the time I want to see the details of the files and I don't care for thumbnails, tags, ratings, etc. If you are like me and want to simplify Windows Explorer's view:

1. Open and folder and customize it in a way that you want reflected across all your folders.

2. Press the Alt key once and then click Tools > Folder Options.

3. Click the View tab and click Apply to Folders.

4. When prompted, click Yes and your settings will now be in effect.

Any previous customization might be retained for specific folders you've already worked with-but don't count on it.
