From the navigation at the top, set your view to "list."
Now select "Tools->Folder Options."
Frontenbringen the View tab. :-)
You should see a button labeled "Apply to all folders" above which is the following text:
You can apply the view (such as Details or Tiles) that you are using for this folder to all folders.
It's a bit disconnected because you're setting "List" before opening this dialogue, but when you read the label it starts to make sense.
