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.

System Restore works if you have a point of return to until the icons have been changed if there is a lot to do
just for the positioning of the icon. Right click on desktop - view and you probably have the reorganization and align it on the grid

I tried the clean boot and now the hard drive works simply and screen went black. The mouse still moves around the screen without any outher work keys? That is what it is?
Hello
You will need to reverse the clean boot, as it is either incidental compared to
the real cause of the problem. What, where you try to fix initially using the cleanboot?You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If so you can try the configuration - control panel
The Device Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click the driver UPDATE - then
Right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is
CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
by tapping F8 as you start several times.First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
field efforts.Here's a video of one of them.

Every time after I get a Firefox Nightly update and run it, it will display the next page:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/nightly/firstrun/?oldversion=30.0 which is fine.
But when it opens this page, all my desktop icons go clear/white and one by one, they all return with their correct icons. And all this happens in a few seconds.
Why is the operation of Firefox every night for the first time, my desktop icons?I suspect that you have both nightly and Firefox version installed?
"The Firefox 'about' shows 30.0. and I've now checked for updates and are now running 33.1.1"
It's different from what you have first published here with!
Firefox 33.1.1 represents the latest version - a 32-bit version.Whereas, the version you first posted here with was a generation of 64-bit channel every night from July. Every night is for "Alpha-testers" and is updated every day, where the name of "night".
Everything that happens in the background on the Windows desktop should not be of concern right now, every night Win 64 bit is several months out.
If you really want to test the Win 64 Nightly builds, follow and participate in the very different evenings and son of 'channels' on MozillaZine forum is based. -

Why the screen saver does not work in the two screens?
I have a monitor connected to my laptop using the VGA connector.
Laptop LCD is set as the primary display and the additional monitor is defined as the extended desktop. When the screen saver appears, it shows on the main screen. How can I make it work on both? (without setting the external display as a clone of the hand).
The OS is Vista Home PremiumThanks for any help!
ElIn dual screen extended mode, Win7 screen saver stops working after unpluging external monitor
I have problems of this kind.
I have listed what I've done to illustrate how to reproduce this.
My OS is win7 32 bit.
The replication steps are
1. start on OS with integrated display (it is the system of n. b.)
2. attach the HDMI (external monitor).
3. turn on the extended mode and HDMI monitor as the primary device.
4. set the screen saver 3D to be active and preview.
Screensaver 3D drawing now works on the main screen.
the secondary monitor (built-in monitor) working with black screen.
5. hot unplug a HDMI monitor.
6. the display of the 3D screen saver is changed back to the built-in screen.
7. BUT the drawing of 3D on the built-in screen screensaver is STOPPED (= NOT updated).
8 move the mouse, built-in monitor escapes from the idle screen status (operating system is still alive)
Is this an OS behave as expected?

iPhone 6 Plus the screen freezes after updating iOS 9.3.1
I'm usually pretty lucky with the iOS updates, but as title the thread, just after the 9.3.1 update was on my iPhone 6, the touch screen now hangs at random times. I am a heavy user environment and this annoying screen freeze occurs at least twice a day, sometimes as much only 7 or 8 times with only hard buttons (home, power, volume) still operate. This never happened before the update, and the only issue is the soft reset option (home + power buttons). It is not only located in some applications, but it seems to be all that touch.
This becomes a real pain in the neck, especially when you write an e-mail or a text message with no way to save what is already written by copy - paste, I need of course the touchscreen to do. Is anyone else facing the same issue after than the iOS put 9.3.1 to level, and are there possible, patches although I strongly suspect that it is a software problem that only Apple can sort with a patch update?
Thank you.
In my opinion I press my home button and wait for the blade to the turning off the option to display, then hold the button of your hold until turning the option off slider disappears. (This clears your cache).
