[X4U] Folder sizes in Finder windows

On my machine the folders I tell to calculate sizes stay that way (even 
after reboots) until I tell it to do otherwise.

Must be a corrupt preference for you....

If I open a folder window in the Finder, in list view, it shows the 
sizes of files only.  If I want to know the sizes of the different 
folders in the window, I go to View -> Show View Options and check the 
box   Calculate All Sizes.
OK.
I leave Calculate All Sizes checked,  but next time I open a window, 
the box has unchecked itself, and I have to go through the same 
procedure of opening the View Menu and checking this box in order to 
see the folder sizes in the window.
Is there any way to check   Calculate All Sizes, and KEEP it checked?
The problem is the same whether I have  This Window Only checked,  or 
All Windows.
