    Recently I have had an issues with my Windows icons for any application, image, or more being very wide and taking up lots of room. It does go away when I reboot but the very next day it comes back. I have tried many solutions I've found on the internet from it being a resolution issue to icon scaling but neither fix it. I am going to try running SFC and DISM soon but I last ran it around a week ago and not sure if the wide icons started before or after that. Any help would be appreciated, especially if I am able to save my files without having to reset a lot of data.
    I am also on Windows 10 Home ver. 1909 OS Build: 18363.1379
    My hardware is an MSI 3080 3x Ventus OC, Ryzen 7 3700X, 2x16 3600MHz 18cas ram

    Windows 10 desktop icons not in order

    In ccleaner, did you uncheck cleaning the icon cache... have not used in a while; however, I think that is what the option is called.

    Now, if you are setting the icons and they move after you have set the settings and not changed them... you may have the "Random Windows 10 Icon movement problem".
    Some people have this and some don't.

    Here is a thread on the problem at Windows10 forums: Windows 10: Folder View Settings and Desktop Icon Positions Not Saving

    what icons are you referring to?
    In the Windows Explorer list or desktop?

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
