Open Explorer.
Turn on the status bar.
Go to Tools>Folder Options.
Select the View tab.
Hit the Apply to All Folders button, then OK.
That should do it!

Another way to try and force window settings is to do a control + X to close the window.
Set the status bar to be viewed, then hold the control button down and use the mouse to click the X at the top right of the window. This should force the window to keep the view settings.
