AppleScript That Saves Finder Window Size, Location and View

Posted:

I wrote the following AppleScript to position and size Finder windows, but the Finder doesn't "remember" the settings the next time I open the windows.



tell application "Finder"

activate

make new Finder window to disk "Hard Drive"

set toolbar visible of Finder window 1 to false

set current view of Finder window 1 to icon view

clean up Finder window 1 by name

set position of Finder window 1 to {30, 55}

set bounds of Finder window 1 to {30, 55, 400, 625}

make new Finder window to folder "Files" of disk "Hard Drive"

set current view of Finder window 1 to icon view

set toolbar visible of Finder window 1 to false

clean up Finder window 1 by name

set position of Finder window 1 to {410, 55}

set bounds of Finder window 1 to {410, 55, 975, 455}

close Finder window 1

close Finder window 1

end tell



How do I make it so the Finder will remember the location and position the next time I manually open the window?
