    Rearranging picture order in Windows 7 and Windows 10

    The developers removed the Auto-Arrange option in Windows 7. Either of these third party fixes will add it back so you can disable it.

    Hello Lianne, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    If you meant that you used the tutorial below, then it sounds like something interfered with restarting explorer.

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1...dows-10-a.html

    If so, then you can just manually restart explorer to sort this.

    1) Open Task Manager (CTRL+Shift+ESC)
    2) Click on File (menu bar).
    3) Click on Run new task.
    4) Type explorer, and click/tap on OK.

    Hi, I just did the simplest thing I could think of and removed all power--battery to and started up again. Auto arrange problem was fixed and everything fine. So, yes, it must have been a restart problem. Thanks for the reply!
