Desktop icons and quicklaunch rearranged after each reboot

[David]

Hi, I'm running Win2K SP4
Lately each time I reboot, all my desktop icons are rearranged in
alphabetical order and my QL bar is reset to its default size (4 icons)
I dont have "Auto Arrange" on nor the Arrange by name
I searched the net and havent found a fix except someone suggesting to
install an addon that would remember my i con position.
Please help as it's really frustrating
Thanks
David

You could try turn ON Auto Arrange. Saving the setting and maybe even
rebooting, then turning it back off. Sometimes, settings get mixed up.

i tried leaving Auto Arrange on, checking and unchecking it....nothing seems
to be reseting. The reason I'm posting here is that I'm kinda out of ideas.
Also it seems that when desktop gets refreshed it automaticly sorts icons in
alphabetical order.
