Then select the view you'd like.  Below are some samples of what each view looks like:

Details View

Once you have selected a view that you like you might want to set it so this window always displays in this view.  To do that go to "Tools" on the window's menu bar and select "Folder Options"

Then click the tab for "View" and scroll down the list looking for "Remember each folder's view settings" and check that box.

PRACTICE ACTIVITY:  Try changing the view settings on a window you open often.
