Hard Drive and Home Keep Reverting Default View Options

I keep assigning my home folder and the hard drive folder background images and customizing the text/icon size and spacing. It stays that way for a bit of time but then reverts back to my default view options/background. All of the other folder that have had their view options customized stay that way, other than home and hard drive. What is going on here and how can I get them to keep looking the way I want them too.
