Change Windows 10 Default View in Search Results

After a search Windows 10 shows content view , which for me is useless, I prefer View Details view to appear however Win10 engineers prove this useless content view as the default search results. To change this there is a great reg file solution to tweak Win10 to show Details instead of Content View. Great little tweak to add to your bag of tweaks!

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Fixes search results defaults to Content view.
;Sets Details view as default search results view for Generic folders.

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU]

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\AllFolders\Shell\{7fde1a1e-8b31-49a5-93b8-6be14cfa4943}]
"LogicalViewMode"=dword:00000001
"Mode"=dword:00000004


Restart explorer.exe or reboot
