    I think I have found the cure. A forum answer involved a problem caused by down loading a duplicate background picture.I tried downloading a new picture - same scene but clean copy from my photo album.Hey presto it worked. I had to rearrange some icons, and on some the logo has gone replaced by a blank page.

    But that isn't a problem.
    Many thanks guys for all the input, I hope the result will assist other members.

  3. Hello Brink,
    I pressed solved so I don't know if you received last post.
    It was just to say thanks, and that I am not going to tamper with any settings
    as i am now quite happy that I no longer have duplicate icons.
    Regards,
    Romeo.

    LOL! Sounds like a prank we (used to) pull in the office. Snapshot the desktop, set it as wallpaper, hide the icons. Within minutes the phone would be ringing. "Nothing on my screen works! Help!!" Barrel of laughs every time.

    Why are my desktop shortcuts rearranged every time I reboot?: I use FireFox browser, which has a "shortcut" page that appears when the browser is activated. But, every time I boot-up Windows [10] my shortcuts are rearranged or some have been replaced with "crapola". How to stop this from happening?...
