Re: Desktop icons and quicklaunch rearranged after each reboot

Hi, I'm running Win2K SP4
Lately each time I reboot, all my desktop icons are rearranged in
alphabetical order and my QL bar is reset to its default size (4 icons)
I dont have "Auto Arrange" on nor the Arrange by name
I searched the net and havent found a fix except someone suggesting to
install an addon that would remember my i con position.
Please help as it's really frustrating

You could try turn ON Auto Arrange. Saving the setting and maybe even
rebooting, then turning it back off. Sometimes, settings get mixed up.
