Anyone know how to change windows explorer settings (details view, classic windows, classic start menu, etc etc) via VBScript?

Modify the controlling registry entries. You can use VBScript or regedit... whatever makes you happy.

I can't tell you what all the entries do, but with SysInternals RegMon, you should be able to experiment and discover what you need.
