I have a process that I run a lot that requires a very specific window size in Windows Explorer (aka "My Computer) in Windows Vista.

There is a rumor floating around on the internet that if I set the window up the way I want it and then hold the Ctrl key down when I click on the "X" to close it that Windows will remember that setting the next time I open Windows Explorer.

This actually worked a while back, and for a long time my Explorer windows were the right size. Now they are not, and nothing I have been able to do will set their default size to what I want.

Do I have to hold my mouth just right and wait for the proper phase of the moon while intoning some mystic chant or something? How do I do this apparently simple process?
