How to restore finder view options to defaults?
Under Lion how can you restore all folders to use the default view options - not the user defined defaults, but the original Lion defaults?

In Finder "Go" menu, hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
com.apple.FolderActions.plist
com.apple.FolderActionsSetup.plist
Then, restart.(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

Nice one! Thanks - I was trying to work out where my Library folder went.
