Windows 7 pro issue

[Fuakma]

I cannot move my desktop icons to other side of screen or around they just relocate to bottom/in one area.

 

 

This here is whats happening from another person an same as for me.

 

When you try to move an icon, it moves to the upper left corner.  If "align icons to grid" is selected, all the icons will be displace down.  If neither "align icons to grid" nor "autoarrange icons" is selected, then all the icons you try to move will "pile up" in the upper left corner of the screen

 

I know its a problem in registry but i do not know how to change them back to normal. Anyone have win 7 pro? and can help me change it back to normal.

 

i was told its in

 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\

and

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

 

But which ones to change.

Right click on desktop. Uncheck Auto-arrange icons

Yes i should of just said i right clicked an unchecked Auto-arrange icons.

 

I installed some program to change Desktop theme (didn't like it) uninstalled it an poof icons wouldn't move in diff areas.

 

I installed a diff program an i like it for now.
