Windows 10: Windows 11: When I change a file name on the desktop, the icon moves

I'm running Windows 11, all updates have been installed, version is Windows 11 Pro 22H2, build 22621.1105When I rename a file that is on the desktop, the icon for the file immediately moves to the lefthand side of the desktop, the first available space from the top. This is a new behavior that I have only experienced since installing Windows 11 [in other words, on this same computer, when it was running Windows 10, the icon for a renamed file stayed put - it didn't move].The icons on my desktop are arranged in clumps, and the clumps stay where they are. It's only when I rename a file [any file

Desktop Icon Keeps On Moving

That's because your resolution is changing each time. To test, try setting to 1024x768, arrange a couple of icons and then restart the PC. As long as the resolution after startup is still 1024x768, then the icons won't move. Trust me. *Wink
