I know how you can set your Finder window size so that every time you open your finder window, it will have the same size. I also know how to do this for other folders.

But I'm wondering if there's a way to do that for any folder that you open. For example you create a new folder on your desktop, it will not have the size you've saved / set before. How do you do that?

Is that possible at all? Also same thing applies to folders that you've downloaded, that people sent you, etc. Basically any new folder on your computer. It's so terribly annoying to set the size of the window every time, especially when you have lots of things in your side bar and you need to access these all the time.

Does this help?

You can also review similar threads at the bottom of this page :D

Thanks, I installed "FinderMinder", the animation how it resized the window is definitely a bit clumsy and all in all this app isn't a very clean solution (the fact there's an app for that shows that there's a problem with no real solution here), but I'm thankful someone took the time to make this and solve this problem for now! :)

Thanks DeltaMac!

Okay, … it doesn't really work actually. :D There's some bugs apparently and some windows won't resize for some reason. I think I'll just leave it haha.
