Is there any setting I'm missing?
Latest beta (0119), fresh install, basic configuration done.
The width is displayed correctly only if I enter the folder those widths were configured on, otherwise they seem to auto-resize.

Re: Columns Width Being Lost
1. in any folder, resize the Name column for instance.
2. go to any other folder.
3. go back to that folder at step 1: the defined size is lost.
I'm more than sure that this doesn't happen on my regular installments of XY (I do care of such precision) and I may or may not be forgetting a tweak or config for this.

Re: Columns Width Being Lost
Well, it's called "Autosize Columns" and it is ON by factory default because users seem to either expect it or fall in love with it if they did not expect it.

Re: Columns Width Being Lost
Even defining current folder view as default under FVS is not fixing the problem...
Nor Current Column Layout as default does a difference.

I disable it under a certain folder and after going anywhere, it's ON again.

Hm, works fine here. FVS is not the solution but maybe the problem. Turn it off and see what happens.

Re: Columns Width Being Lost
I tried disabling it (FVS) prior to the "Autosize Columns" tip, no effect.
For some reason (tried a mix of everything I thought could relate) "Autosize Columns" wasn't solving the problem either as I described.
Restarted the app (w/o saving), disabled "Autosize Columns" and now it seems to be working as expected.
Thanks, Don!
