    Space between Icons changed after using not compatible program


    I'm trying to help someone that has the following problem:

    After using a program not compatible with Windows 10 (Windows 7 Folder Background Changer) the space between icons changed. When I search google I only find stuff on how to change the spacing between icons for the desktop, but the problem is on all folders except Desktop and Downloads folder.
    Windows Version: Windows 10 64bits
    What has already been tried:

    - Resizing icons with CTRL + Mouse Wheel
    - System Restore (No restore points before program installation)
    - Change Windows theme
    - Substitute HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics registry key by default settings from other computer
    - sfc /scannow
    - Change Windows Resolution

    Suggestion to have an option to change Notification Area icon this way too.
    Suggestion to finally have proper separate Options window like most (all?) Windows programs do.
