Thank you all for the help. I will post about my problems.DaveA wrote:I have just upgraded to Creator, and am not having this issue.
It could be that your version of "WinTidy" needs to be updated to a version that works with Creator.
Dave I do not believe WinTidy has anything to do with it because it is not running unless I tell it to open and then it is only used for the time it takes to recover my desktop, about 10 seconds. I then shut it down since it has no more use to me after the recovery.
I may be totally wrong about this but I have checked the Task Manager and the only time it shows WinTidy running is when I manually open to recover my desktop as previously mentioned. So I just don't see how it could be the culprit.
I am in the middle of an experiment but won't know the results until tomorrow. When I booted this machine up today I did not use WinTidy to recover the desktop. Instead last night I took a screenshot of it and printed that out. Today I moved the icons that had shifted on their own back to as close as I could to the position I wanted them to be in. Some were stubborn and decided to choose where they wanted to be located so for the most part I left them there. These stubborn icons actually jumped or shifted to where they wanted to be. I'll see how or if they move on the next reboot but I sure hope they stay put. I did save the new layout with WinTidy after the rearrangement but when I can't place a shortcut where I want it, it is frustrating. Not sure if it matters, and it never did before Creators Version, but I have 118 desktop icons. So I'm sure you can see what a pain that is when they move around on their own.
