Windows 10: New saved files to desktop re-arranges the icons

Sometimes I save a new file to the desktop, the icon for the file places itself in the top left spot and re-arranges the existing order.-I have unchecked the "Auto arrange icons" options.-The "Allow themes to change dektop icons" is also unchecked.-All the Display Drivers are updated.Can anyone help me with a solution? It does not happen everytime, but many a times and it is frustrating to always have to manually re-arrange my desktop...

New saved files to desktop re-arranges the icons

Everytime I save a new file to the desktop, the icon for the file places itself in the top left spot and re-arranges the existing order.

-I have unchecked the "Auto arrange icons" options.

-The "Allow themes to change dektop icons" boc is also unchecked.

-All the Display Drivers are updated.

Can anyone help me with a solution? It is frustrating to always have to manually re-arrange my desktop...
