Q: View options not saved on network shares

I have a Yosemite (10.10.4) server hosting a few AFP file shares. On one particular client machine (10.10.5), viewing the shares as columns, View Options are not retained. As soon as the Finder window is closed and reopened, the view options revert to a particular set (arranged by date created, sorted by name). This affects all users on this client machine, but no other clients appear affected. I'm at a complete loss for what to look for here.

    Try this:

     

    Close all finder windows open to any drives.

    Open the server window in question in the finder.

    Adjust the view options and window position the way you like it and do nothing else.

    Close the window.

     

    Open again.

    Does it stick now?
