Increase XP folder setting

       Windows remembers 400 folder settings. When that number is reached some settings aren’t retained any longer. You can change this to 8000 by adding this edit to the registry.
1. Copy the following  into notepad.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell NoRoam\BagMRU]
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell NoRoam\Bags]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell]
“BagMRU Size”=dword:00001f40
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell NoRoam]
“BagMRU Size”=dword:00001f40
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]
“NoSaveSettings”=dword:00000000
2. Save the file as folder8000.reg

3. Double click the file to import into your registry.
