Hi guys, I have a problem:

Every time I plug my WD HDD hard drive, the finder window size opens on full screen without a side bar, I resize it and enable the sidebar just the way I like. But when I eject the disk and replug it, it opens on full screen again, without a sidebar...

My question is; is there a way to set the finder window size to default for external drives?


Things that I already tried:
- using the "use as default" in the "show view option" from the right click menu
- Deleting the finder window size files from Library>Preferences
- using the "option-click" on the window's icon in the title (I don't know what that means but I read it online)
- Resizing the window the way I like and restarting Finder

Thanks for the help
