Windows 10: Icons resetting.

I have this issue for a few days since i've upgraded my monitor. Since then every time i restart my pc my icons go out of the arrangement i had them in. I have already tried deleting the Icon cache.db in appdata/local folder and restarted but issue still persists.. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening.. Only change is going from a 27" asus monitor to a 34 Ultra wide alienware monitor, Both are also 1440p..

Continuous Reset Layout Icons

right click on the desktop, and at the top of the popup window is "sort by", you can then click which way you want the folders and icons sorted on the desktop.

There is one way I know that it can reset after setting it the way you want. If you don't reset the PC normally to allow the changes to set in. If you were to crash the system or power down holding the power button, the system will default to the last save configuration (which is likely by alphabetical order).
