#Allow undock without having to log on meaning windows
It seems worse after the latest Windows update. So, I’ve persistently had this problem for a while (years, I suppose). One possibility is to move some icons and then search for any files changed in the last few seconds (if you have a utility that can do that) – might help…… If you take a backup of your desktop folder and then use it to overwrite the current desktop folder, you will probably find all your icons neatly marshalled at the left side of your screen – so it would appear that their positions are not stored in the icons themselves, or in any file saved in the desktop folder.

It therefore appears that no recent versions of Windows 10 use this file any more, so unless you’ve managed the impossible, and stopped MS updating your Windows 10 version at will, then deleting this file apparently cannot have any effect.Ĭlearly, however, the icon positions are stored somewhere. However, the newest version of the file is 3 years old – 2014 – despite the laptop being only 2 years old (?) and having had several W10 updates in that time. Not sure how old this chain is – but when I checked today (16th November 2017) for the iconcache file (which is actually iconcache.db) I found 3- one in each User profile (including Administrator, but excluding Default). Not possible without a lot of wasted effort saving them manually moving them to the other side in Windows. I like to save some files I am currently editing on the desktop and I have my primary open app justified on the left side and like to be able to drag-and-drop the current files on the right side. It’s also super annoying that they all default to the left side of the screen and there’s no way to change it. So you can take the time to get every icon exactly where you want it, even aligned to the grid, with intentional grid gaps between different categories of icons, then as soon as any of those actions above happens Windows re-arranges them and you have to start over. Changing screen resolution, using an external monitor that is a different resolution then resuming use of the laptop screen, some updates and resets, and in the case of laptops that double as tablets it doesn’t survive using them in portrait mode then returning to landscape mode. The problem is the icons don’t remain fixed through any range of actions.
