Is there a way to force Windows to save desktop icon positions?
Best Answer
You can simply right-click the Desktop & click Refresh. This saves the icon positions (at least it does on XP, also confirmed on Windows 7).
Here's a simple way to confirm that this method works:
explorer.exe
(& restart it, if it doesn't auto-restart)explorer.exe
(& restart)
