Windows 10: Any ideas why my desktop app icons take up so much space and I can only fit 2?

Hello, yesterday I noticed my recycle bin icon was pushed far out on the left side of my screen when its usually top left. When looking at the background around the app and when trying other apps they have a huge spacing around them. Also the only spot I can put them is up top with 2 max. One left and one right. Any tips or help with this would be awesome. Check the picture for what is going on.

Any idea why my BIOS takes so long to load?

43 seconds to be precise, according to task manager. After that W10 takes equally long to get to log in. Having an NMVe drive, I assumed the whole process would be a lot quicker, but really it isn't that much quicker than my old PC. My start up programs are showing low impact to none on start up. Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks.

 

Why do apps take up more space than they indicate in the marketplace?

My phone is constantly running out of space so I decided to tabulate the amount of space that the games I have installed should take up.



To do this I went through the list on the marketplace and wrote down how much space each app is supposed to use. According to this all my games should take up around 2GB. I am using a Lumia 710 which should have 6.28GB of usable storage space. This made
me wonder what was taking up the other 4GB.



Since I needed space I uninstalled a few games. I then went to the about page under settings, which told me that I had 1.49GB of storage space remaining. I knew that I did not uninstall enough apps to free up this space.



I then went to the marketplace and reinstalled a game that I had just uninstalled. The app said that it required 124MB of space. After it was installed I returned to the about page and it said I had 993.56MB of free space.



So my question is:



Why does a game that is listed at 124MB take up over 500MB?
