Ubuntu – How to customize nautilus files view in Ubuntu 17.04

17.04customizationnautilus

I want all Nautilus windows/folders to show file listings the same customized way.

On Windows I'd simply configure a single folder like I want, open options, click "set all folders like this one" (or something on those lines, don't remember the exact button label)

On Nautilus (Ubuntu file manager) I can configure a single folder at a time. And this site has dozen of answered questions on how to reset all folders to default, but I can't find anything on how to set all folders to my custom style.

Which is as shown bellow.

nautilus

This would be my simple preferred view, with size before name.

Edit for clarity: I do Not want to set this on thousands of folders. I want my way to be the default everywhere.

Open nautilus, from menu select: "Edit" -> "Preferences", "Views" tab.
