    The icon of the desktop in the original location Squeezed underneath it


    Hello, when downloading a file to the desktop or pasting a folder to the desktop, the file will go to the top left corner of the desktop (most of the time), sometimes to the middle of the left side of the screen (a few cases occur) After this problem occurs, the file icon in the original location will be squeezed out, and the already arranged desktop icons will be disturbed. This problem does not occur every time. Sometimes the files pasted/downloaded to the desktop will be listed in the blank area of the desktop, but not in a fixed position, nor in the order from top to bottom and left to right. Sort regularly. [As long as it is only in the blank area, it is in line with my requirements, at least it will not appear in the upper left corner and the left middle position, causing the problem of occupying the original icon position]. Feeling abnormal, how to deal with it?

    *****[The above has checked the "align the icon with the grid", without checking the "automatic arrangement icon", the desktop icons are all custom arranged on the desktop ---- I want the arrangement Rules are also the rules of the system itself]

    ***** [If you paste a document file to the desktop, there is still no problem with the above-mentioned icon being squeezed out]


    System version: win10 Pro 1903 (I used to have the above problems in the home version, but after using the sfc/scannow command, it will return to normal. Now after the activation to the professional version, the same problem

    reappears, but sfc/scannow has no effect.)


    Has done the following operations, no effect, the problem still exists: (The following operations are performed in the order of 1~7)


    [1] Computer manufacturer online customer service provides: Another set of a local administrator account.

    [2] Computer manufacturer online customer service: administrator run command prompt: sfc space / scannow, restart.

    [3] Computer manufacturer online customer service: delete the IconCache.db file in the C:\Users\****\AppData\Local folder and restart

    [4] Microsoft online customer service provides the following commands: Open Windows powershell administrator Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add- AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode- Register"$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} Copy this command and press the Enter key

    [5] Microsoft official website downloads iso file to install the system.

    [6] After the installation is completed, the test problem still exists, the method is invalid, and the above [2] and [4] operations are repeated. As a result, the problem still exists and is invalid.

    [7] Microsoft online customer service is provided as follows: Try the following: Enter "Gpedit.msc" after Windows+R and press Enter, then open "User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Desktop", double click on the right side of the "Do not save settings when exiting" ", and set it to "disabled", click the "OK" button to save the settings

    Program that saves the location of Desktop icons?

    It would kind of make-sense if in a game you used a lower resolution than your desktop.
    However, the sad news is that I have no idea how to fix it, whether there is a program that saves all your icon locations or why this is happening when your computer goes to sleep.

    Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.
