Microsoft File and Folder Troubleshooter can find and fix common problems with file and folder operations, including Windows Explorer and File Explorer in Windows 7, 8, and 10.

This troubleshooter is one not included with Windows 10. It can help diagnose and repair many problems, including when Windows forgets your folder view settings, an issue that has existed for years.

Like most Troubleshooters, there's an Advance Options setting that allows you to decide if repairs are made automatically or not. Typically, you would allow repairs to be made automatically.

You are also offered one of four possible problems with the last option if nothing fits or you're not sure. Follow the steps by clicking on Next until repairs are made, or you're told everything is OK.
