Now get that small utility! note: another possible reason that caused the problem, was the use of the "Align to grid" command (i presume that in English the name of the command is this or a similar one): so doing, when you have many icons, some of them will go outside Desktop boundaries As a fellow "crowded-desktop" 98-er, I have found that align_to_grid doesn't push icons beyong the right edge of the screen unless there are no other holes. BUT starting in safe mode is guaranteed to cause desktop chaos. |
