Open a Terminal with Ctrl + Alt + T and type:

gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences default-folder-viewer 'list-view' and hit ENTER.

There are two more options you can use 'icon-view' and 'compact-view'.

      @efthialex It's likely the OP did search but didn't find that because s/he was using keywords like "detailed" instead of "list." Searching is very good and important but please don't assume people haven't done so, just because they don't find the same results you do. In any case, thanks for finding that question; we can close this as a duplicate.
