How can I set global WinExplorer view?

In Windows Explorer I only use the Details view with small icons, no pictures, blah, blah. Oh, and don't like the media columns that pop up when I dump audio files in an empty folder, etc.

So far I haven't found a way to make ALL folders/files on the C:\ drive display as Customize > General Items in Details view and NEVER allow any other view. Right now I now have to manually set every folder.

How can I set the OS to default all existing and future folders/files to my desired WinExplorer display?

Change Folder Template in Windows 10

Turn off automatic folder type discovery.

Option Three / Item 3

Then manually change all library templates.

Thank you! Option 3-3 looks to be just what I needed.
