If I right click on the desktop and select Sort by "type" or any other choice, it will be selected, after a reboot for some reason windows doesn't remember the selection and I have to set it again. It shows that nothing is selected at all after reboot.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks,

I am not suggesting that you use this. I do not know much about it. That being said it was suggested by a Forum Member to others

Lock Desktop Icon Positions?
There is another freeware that is good at sorting and saving your icons where you want.
I use it myself without any problems.
Fences Download - By Stardock - Clean up your desktop clutter
It has some cool features like "auto-hide" desktop for a minimalist effect, as well you can right click certain icons and exempt them from the "auto-hide" feature.
It is also in this sites recommended freeware thread. Hope it suits you.
You have 3 selections. Make system restore point before trying. If you do not like it you can go back with system restore and try another.
System Restore
So is it just a bug in Win7 that it isnt remembered after I reboot for desktop icon sorting?
