Uninvited desktop icon rearrangement
Over the years I have some issues with these critters. On advice
received in this or the other W98 group, I installed a small app (whose name I forget) that saved the layout and restores it from a Rt-Clk seelction on MyComputer. This works a treat in recovering from those occasions when things go awry but ... Somehow lately the desktop seems to get rearranged like (western) writing on a page - filled from the top left in rows. As an addicted desktop-icon-stuffer (there's room for about four more) who knows where every one normally is, this is getting annoying and there is obviousl;y a cause which i would like to address by means other than invoking the "Restore Desktop Icon Layout" function. The situations where this unwanted rearrangement is occurring a (a) on first bootup into Windoze. (b) sometimes, on closing an app window (e.g. a browser) when that was only user-app running. Any suggestions on how to prevent this unwanted rearrangement? |
