RE: desktop is changed
Make sure that nothing is selected on your desktop and press your application key. Arrow down to "sort by" and make sure "name" is checked. Then you can use the f5 key to resort your icons.

For some reason, ahnd there will be a reason, the re-cycle-bin is number 28 of 28 and computer is about 12. Having checked the desktop settings against a system which is in the order that I want, I can observe that the settings on both machines as regards the desktop are identical. So here's the kicker. How do I get my desktop icons back in the order that I want, when it appears that all settings are correct? Thanks.

RE: desktop is changed
Hey, Joe. I don't know why Windows does this, but I just reversed and then fixed my desktop icons. Here's how. Do this. >From the desktop, make sure nothing is selected. You can do this with control-space bar. Now press the applications key and select sort by from the menu. The top item in win 7 is name. The name menu item is already checked, but press enter on it anyway. When the menu closes, the icons should be arranged in ascending alphabetic order again.
