Desktop Icons - Problem remembering icon positioning + random sorting

Hi all,

I have a small issue where every once in a while my desktop icons would not remember their previous position, and I had to sort them again. This problem still occurs, but now I can even reproduce the issue 100% by moving 1 set icon to a new position that will cause all icons to become unsorted.

Here is a clip showing part of the issue:


I want to mention that I run a 3 monitor setup, and the desktop icons in on the second (non primary) monitor.

Anyone have any suggestions how to solve this, or does Windows need to patch it?

Cheers
