• My icon in the left lower bar disappeared, how I put back it?

  When I installed FF 3.6.22, FF icon down in the lower tray left disappeared, (I don't have not noticed this), and has appeared on the desktop. I hate the icons on the desktop, so I deleted the shortcut and then noticed that the icon has disappeared from the left side of the task bar, next to the oblong start.
  How can I get the icon or the shortcut for FF 3.6.22 back in the right place?

  And no, I don't want to go to the v6.

  Make the shortcut on the desktop again and try this:

• Why the desktop icons all move to the left of the screen on any update?

  I place all the icons of the convenient positions, not on the grid. But whenever I do any upgrade of Microsoft or others, all icons move to the left side of the screen, sometimes on the grid and sometimes not, sometimes restart and sometimes not. I'm really tired of having to move all icons when this happens. I even tried locking icons on the desktop, but that does not work either.

  .

  Make sure that the reorganization is not selected when you right-click on the desktop. That said, you can still see this problem if you do not have to line up on the grid.

  This tool will make your icons back where they were if there is no other resolution.

• When I restart my PC Windows XP desktop icons auto arrange on the left side of the screen.

  On the screen of "rearrange icons by", "Auto arrange" is unchecked. !!!

  I use the app "icon Restorer" to move my icons to how I arranged the on the desktop, but every time that I reboot the desktop icons auto arrange themselves on the left side of the screen.

  What can I do to keep my static desktop icons (and not self organization after reboot)?

  Hello Henry

  The list in two steps below are users in another thread about the same exact issue. Try the steps suggested, let me know they help. Thank you.

  Mysoul           

  Hi there, have you tried? Click with the right button on a blank space on your desktop, highlight the icons on the desktop, check on "locking up icons" and organize the uncheck'auto?

  or

  securityguy14            

  When you say "LOCK icon on my desktop items" I assume you mean to stop to rearrange a reboot? If that's what you mean, so just copy paste then whats below into Notepad, then click on "file > save under...". "in the part superior, save it to the desktop. When you save the 'Save as type' change to 'Documents text (*.txt)' to 'All Files' and name it anything with a .reg extension. Close everything and then click on the file and select "merge". also, you want to make sure to add the part "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00".» This registry setting records the position of items on the desktop when you turn off

  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
  "NoSaveSettings" = hex (3): 00, 00, 00, 00

  Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk...

  I haven't had any changes consciously, and the games do not work in any user account.  When I've done sfc/scannow (command prompt) he said that I was not the administrator.  I could learn from another source to solve this problem - in the start menu, right click on the command prompt icon, and then click Run as administrator.  Hope everybody help with this problem.  If you do not have command prompt in your Start menu, any type of command prompt in your search box and it should appear.

• The desktop icons to go to the left of the screen on reboot.

  I had already read the thread "Windows 7 for moving desktop icon", but can't respond to it because it is "locked".  So here I am.

  Mine started about 4 days (after some questionable sites surf?).  All my icons have been splashed against the left side and have been small to medium size.  Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus running did not help.

  I saw all 8 pages of the thread and made note that Microsoft's Watch, but only to divert tangential Seraph to start new discussions.  Nothing to help us multiplied.

  I ended up cut and paste solutions of the thread to Word and seen ~ 12 different "solutions" that has worked for some but not for others.  I ignored any comments about 2 monitors or an external monitor on a laptop.  With all this, my conclusion is that the glitch must be multi-causal.

  I would say that if you have a lot if the icons that group them you inside new folders to avoid displacement and the removal of several dozen distinct icons like patches are tempted.  I reduced the number of icon to only 8.

  I started trying the simplest fixes first.
  1 uncheck Arrange Auto did not help
  2. right click on the desktop to refresh would push any icon I had moved to the right at the original on the left and always position at a specific position.  By pressing the F5 key did the same.
  3. While holding down the SHIFT key while rebooting did not help.
  4. I had Avast antivirus but changed to Ms Security Essentials last year.
  5 drag the icons so they align horizontally at the top of the screen did not help.
  6. I went to personalize > ChangeDesktopIcons and not AllowThemesToChangeDesktopIcons.  Did not help.
  At this point, I was looking for in Control Panel to see what graphics card, I had (Nvidia?  ATI radeon?)  When I had the revelation.
  Always to go were the following:
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/save-and-restore-desktop-icon-layout-in-Windows-Vista/
     http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
  get rid of the Windows 7 library feature
  Enter "System Configuration" and unchecking the various services at startup
     http://www.computing.NET/answers/Windows-7/desktop-icons-keep-moving-in-Windows-7/5758.html

  The Epiphany in the Panel: my glitch had only 3-4 days and I could do a system restore.  I could go back to June 21, well before the glitch.  This led to reset and my icons were returned to the position and the original size.  The new cases were there although many of the icons that I had placed in them were in their former positions.  For now, I'll keep records and reduced the number of icons.
