Impossible to disable the column "Preview" in the Finder Windows

Before that I describe this problem, I just want to clarify that I have configured Finder to always open folders in a new window, and while some of my files are put into mode icon that the majority is set to display in the list.

Following an upgrade to Yosemite to El Capitan, some of my Finder list view windows began to show the column "Preview" on the side of the far right, after the date modified column. I don't like this feature because when none of the folders or items are selected it shows just a ugly "blank" space in the window. So, I quickly discovered that I can disable this "Preview" column by selecting "hide the Preview" in the view menu.

The problem is that once I chose this, in many of my files change does not stick. After a reboot or a restart, I'll go back to the window and the preview column is again. Sometimes it happens immediately after closing the window and opening it again. The worst culprit is my user folder.

I tried selecting "Hide Preview" and then enter the display options and set as the default view for all Finder Windows, but this makes no difference.

Anyone know how to disable the overview at all times column in all the windows in the Finder?

This is what it looks like in my folders set to display from the list:

  • SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games

    SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games.

    When on the windows desktop, he will have the disabled windows key and a small box will popup in the lower right corner, saying he is.
    But if I press it, then in a game (fullscreen), it will be the game tab down, put me to what is "beneath" and open the start menu.
    I tried both Intellitype 8.2 and the latest Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center but they both react in the same way.
    The Bank or the profile is set to number 2 (game) and of course, the windows key is disabled in the settings. Even if I turn it off on THE 3 banks it'll always exhibit the same behavior.
    I tried to implement the individual profiles for the games that I play as well but no luck there either. And re - install the drivers does not help.
    It completely defeats the purpose of this feature. Ideally, she would work on the other hand, being active only in an office environment and disabled in games/full screen applications, but it should at least work as announced, following the rules laid down by the Bank or the current profile.
    In addition, the auto feature does not work with these games or the other and some applications as well. Am I alone in having these problems? I'm ready to completely reinstall windows because it's *.
    Any help/ideas please?

  • Problem with the finder windows... Why what is happening

    It started today. I don't know how to solve this problem... it seems that the overtime, I opened a window of the scrollbar are right in the Middle, I can bring it back to the right but then when I re - open the same window, it goes back to this. Is this a problem?

    No, this isn't a problem, it's a preview for a Finder window pane:

    If you don't want to see it: Finder > Menu bar > View > preview hide, or use: shift - command - P

    NB. You can enable or disable the preview pane, to display the preview: Finder > Menu bar > display > show preview, or use: shift - command - P

  • Status bar in the Finder Windows?

  • Command + tab to open the Finder window does not

    Sorry to post this again - the first accidentally got marked as resolved, but it is not and I still need help.

    I recently installed at El Capitan on my iMac, and now, when I use the command + tab to toggle an application by opening a window of Finder, I get that the Finder menu bar. The open Finder window is located in the window menu, and I choose to see it and use it. Before the upgrade, command-tab would be near the top of the Finder window currently open and active. How do I get it to behave as it did before? I HATE having to select the window menu item! AND when I select the window from the window menu, the bar menu auto mask, that I also hate. Automatic masking occurs only in the Finder, and he is not selected in the settings of my Apple.

    Help! Thanks in advance.

    I think you have Finder mode full-screen. I do not use full screen at all, so I'm not really familiar with it, but what seems to work for me was to switch to Finder and select the window from the window menu, and then press ESC to exit full-screen.

  • Impossible to disable the notification app on Apple Watch 2

    Hello

    I recently bought a new series of Apple Watch 2, which comes with the watch as 3 preinstalled OS. I know that all my notifications in instant messaging (whatsapp, wechat) have been reflected on my Apple Watch. I find too boring and I want to turn it off. I followed the instructions (go Apple Watch app on the iphone paired, then notifications, search for the application and then turn off 'iphone mirror'), but it did not work. Notifications will always appear on my watch for these two applications. The only way I can get rid of the notification is to change the style of alert iphone to "none" for both applications. But this way I get the banner on iphone or which is not acceptable.

    So my question is:

    1. What is the settings "mirror iphone alerts" in the menu of notification of Apple Watch app supposed to do? He seems to have no effect at all?
    2. This notification of iphone mirror setting OS level control or that something must be supported by the application in order to have the effect? In other words, if it's a bug, is a watch OS bug or a bug in the application?

    Thank you
