Windows keeps the state/view of the folders in the registry. But there
are only 400 states stored there. As soon as you view more folders in
explorer, states get lost.

That way, only one state has to be stored in the registry.

It's not the icon cache size. Those view settings are stored under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\

If you have problems with that, you should:
- delete all entries under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\BagMRU and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\Bags
- increase the size of the available slots. The key is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU Size
- Restart Windows
