  1. icon placement when transferring folders


    Hi. I use RemotePC to transfer folders from home to the office computer. Lately, when I transfer a folder from home, the icon for the transferred folder appears in the top left corner of the desktop display, For example see below: I transferred a folder named Danville 1971 Yearbook.RemotePC support said their app does not control the icon placement. Is there a Windows default setting that puts new icons in the top, left corner? If so, I can change that setting? Thank you!

    :)
