Not sure that calibre has a 'fixed' default layout once custom columns are in play. Whatever you setup in Look and Feel->Book Details defines what columns are shown and their horizontal juxtaposition. You can define a starting VL in Preferences->Behaviour. And AFAIK sort order is whatever it was when calibre last terminated.

I always start in the View Manager default View (which in respect of columns happens to be the same as Look & Feel->Book Details), it has its keyboard shortcut set to ctrl+alt+1, so its easy to get back to. Other Views are ctrl+alt+2, ctrl+alt+3 etc. I always start in a specific VL (Prefs->Behav). And I always start, via command argument, in a specific physical library.

I prefer a clean state approach, rather than wherever I was last time. Same with browser and file manager etc.
