disable auto arrange in Win 7
viewed the tutorial about disabling auto arrange in Win 7, proceeded to download, run, etc. and all i ended up with was a Giant Windows 7 icon in the middle of my screen. thought i'd lost everything, but created a backup just before i tried this step and restored system. this tutorial (written by a Microsoft tech i hear) does not work. please help! is there any other way to disable this annoying feature in Win 7. i want to arrange photos in my pic file as i choose to like i did on XP. thanks

yes, that's the tutorial and download i used. after i clicked run within seconds i had nothing whatsoever on my screen but the Win7 logo. really worried me thinking i had lost all files. restored from a backup, but to me this is simply to extreme a measure to take with my system. what is the problem? if you say it works, what went wrong?
