    Icon size

    Hi,

    I've been having a problem with my icon size : it won't stay the same size.

    Everytime I turn on my laptop, I change the icon size on desktop with the touchpad, and the icon size in my folders to "large", but whenever i reboot my laptop the icon size returns to "medium" on desktop and "small with details" in my folders.

    Anyone knows how to fix that ?

    For some obtuse reason neither of the above solutions works on my laptop.Completely different settings are offered when I perform the above actions.

    The method I gave you is from my Windows 10, and there is no difference among Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro and Win 10 Enterprise version.

    All I can say is that when I right clicked on a empty space on the desktop It opened up a different variation of options to choose from.All's well that ends well and I can now choose what size I need the icons.
