Rearrange Windows 7 icons that I look

Many people arise on the icons that rearrange after reboot.  My question is the icons coming spontaneously out of alphabetical order, normally when they are obscured by other windows.  But I finally saw it happen when I was doing nothing.  I have auto arrange on and sort by name, and I want them like this.  But an icon that starts with 'U' will move all of a sudden at the end of the list after two icons 'W '.  These are all in the desktop folder to my user - not the all users folder.  This happens every day.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your update on the issue.

Your computer is connected to a network domain, as you mentioned "work computer"?

If YES, then you can repost your query on TechNet Forum that the issue may arise because of incorrectly configured Group Policy plan. TechNet is watched by among the best professionals in the world for the linked server queries, so you'll have better support there.

TechNet Forum

If your system is not connected to a domain network, I suggest you to reproduce the problem in safe mode (a diagnostic mode in which only the necessary Microsoft services are in operation and a minimal set of drivers are activated with all the other third start disabled services).

Start your computer in safe mode

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/Start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=Windows-7

Check if you find that this problem exists in safe mode.

If the issue is not reproduced in safe mode, start any service or third party software could be responsible for the problem. Therefore, then try to boot the system with selective startup.

  • Windows 7 icons look like windows 7 and xp mixed.

    Original title: style of windows 7.

    Hello! I don't know what I did but my windows 7 icons look like this now:

    It's like windows 7 and xp mixed (see this marker of the icon like in xp, not not like in 7 transparent square). I kinda like that, but it will be better if you tell me how to do it on purpose, because I did not goal! And that's why I'm worrying about I did not on purpose! And I even took this screenshot using way: Impr. xp screen then the paint. What's happening: I mixed system files with my windows 7 xp half?. Help, please. And after that you could tell me how to do it on the purpose – if possible? I can like it :).

    Well, what the...? :) I restarted my PC (I stopped last night and just started my PC today) and everything is normal. My icons once more the window transparent when I hover over them like originally in windows 7. Do you always think I do the tutorial or he didn't need? :))

  • How to make the icon that indicates the caps caps disappear from windows 7?

    Hello world
    I am new to windows 7 but I am very happy with it, is great. However... There is something that I find very annoying and would like to settle as soon as possible a solution would be very welcome.
    I'm a trigger easy person when it comes to using earplugs I love and does not hesitate to she and I certainly don't want to turn them off, but I want really is to make the icon that pops up saying on the Caps hats disappear; It stops typing you for a second or two, but it is not that I don't want this crap appearing all the time, I find it very boring and does not prevent my goal when studying... HOW CAN I RESOLVE THIS ISSUE?

    HEY... Thank you.
    Someone told me Quickset but could not find it in my pc, guess there is a chance, I don't know where to look, but start certainly did not show it. or maybe it is not yet in the system.
    I contacted Samsung support by electronic mail and gave them as much detail of the pc as possible, except the number of pc, because I didn't have the box again but all similarly subsequently found in tiny and the same silver color on bottom of laptop PC. I was not thinking straight at the time to think and look at the bottom of the pc.
    What they did was to send me a link to a forum and say that it wasn't anything to do with them or others... not very helpful at all, but will contact them again with all the details.
    I'll deal with them and see if they like this for me.
    Thanks :)

  • Cannot disable the reorganization of desktop on Windows XP icons

    I'm having a problem with the auto arrange feature that automatically organizes the icons on the desktop whenever I restart my computer it self organizes icons. I do not have the option selected when I click right/rearrange the icons by / auto arrange also lock web items on desktop is disabled.

    I am able to rearrange my icons after I am starting up, but whenever I restart it rearrange my icons.

    After checking several forums seems whether an error in Windows XP and that the solution is to create a new user profile and start from scrach.

    Any ideas?, thanks.

    No, no changes that could cause this problem, I tried 2 methods without success, but here is the solution:

    1. data of the user backup (My Documents, Favorites, desktop)

    2 remove the user profile

    3. connect you again with this user to create new user profile

    4 restore the user data

    And voila! Automatic reorganization works as it should once more!

    Hope this help others causes this problem on internet research will take you to several non-functional solutions.

    Thank you!

  • all my icons that were normally at the bottom of the screen have migrated to the right side and are all bundled together how to place their return to the bott

    I recently bought a HP 15 laptop with 8.1. I use mainly desktop with latest Mozilla. All my icons that is usually found at the bottom of the screen have migrated to the right side of the screen and boots, to the top, I can't do your choice. I tried to customize without result. I am 75 but strive to keep abreast, but it baffled me.

    Sorry, it's a question of support of Windows, the Windows taskbar does not part of Firefox. I do not use Windows 8.1 myself, and I don't know if the process is the same as on my Windows XP - but maybe click and hold and drag this bar down might work like on Windows XP.

    If you do not understand what I said, or it does not work, here is a popular Windows 8 support forum that should be able to help you.
