I've never used a windows in my house 🙂 Been using macs since the LCIII.... Maybe you misunderstood me. I want my icons to be on my desktop EXACTLY as they are, after I restart the computer. So, after I restart it, what it does is it puts all of my icons to the right. It's never happened to me on my mac before. I have all sorts of icons on my desktop all over the place, there is no reason why they should be moved after a restart....it was fine in Leopard, just snow leopard.
Thanks, again.
