How to keep "View Images" selected when opening a .blend file?

Hi, when opening a new blender file (see image icon below) I want to see “images” in the file but when I select the “images” icon and close Blender it doesn’t show images when I open Blender again. I want to see a preview of any images in my Blender files. Q. How do I keep “view images” selected when closing Blender?

After you changed your Display Mode, go to Edit > Preferences and click “Save Preferences”.
