TerryFox Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hi ... I have seen a tweak somewhere but I can't remember from where now , I just reformat my computer , I had this option under the " My Computer " It was a tweak or something , Any ways it would keep the icons on my desktop from moving around , It would lock them in the place they were set at , Does anyone know of such thing ? Thanks BTW I know about the setting "arrange icons by" I'm not interest in that setting , What I want is a add on tweak under the my computer area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGuy Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 In Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP you can lock down the position of the Desktop icons using a couple of files from the MS Windows NT 4.0 Resource Kit [5 KB, free, unsupported].Place Layout.dll in %windir%\System (Win95/98/ME) or %systemroot%\System32 (WinNT/2000/XP) and then double-click on Layout.reg.From now on, whenever you right-click on the "Recycle Bin" or "My Computer" icons, you can see a new option: "Save [or Restore] Desktop Icon Layout".There are several 3rd party tools that also do this, but these files are free and only 14 KB in size."http://www.nthelp.com/proggy/layout.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
