    Desktop Icons Keep Shuffling


    Hey Guys,

    Quick question, every time I restart my computer my icons seem to shuffle around. I like having them on different sides of the screen, but they all seem to line up on the left side of my desktop every time I restart.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.
