Windows 10: Arrange desktop list (shortcut)

Is it possible to arrange the order of desktop files/folders in the taskbar >> Button That shows a pop-up menu of all desktop Items? They move up and down constantly but without logic, like a-z sort or last used.

Hi Cheryl,



Thank you for taking time to post on Microsoft Community.



We are glad that you were able to successfully update your Windows 10 computer, in regards with your concern please refer to the information listed below:



How to Arrange or Move Icons



To arrange icons by name, type, date, or size, right-click a blank area on the desktop, and then click Arrange Icons. Click the command that indicates how you want to arrange the icons (by Name, by Type, and so on). If you want the icons to be automatically
arranged, click Auto Arrange. If you want to arrange the icons on your own, click Auto Arrange to remove the check mark.



How to Remove Icons



Some icons are shortcuts to programs on your computer. Shortcut icons usually have an arrow in the bottom-left corner. If you do not want a shortcut on your desktop, click the icon, and then drag it to the Recycle Bin. This action only removes the shortcut,
not the program that it is pointing to. You can also right-click the icon, and then click Delete to remove a shortcut from your desktop.



Some icons such as My Network Places, Recycle Bin, and My Computer cannot be deleted.



If you require any further information, feel free to let us know.



Regards.

 

You can 'drag to order' but it will only last for the current session.
