When I have to manually power off my Windows XP SP2 system with the power
button, and after I reboot, some of my desktop shortcut icons that I moved to
another part of the desktop auto-arrange themselves on the left-side of the
desktop again. I manually moved them to different parts of my desktop, i.e.
shortcuts to Excel or Word documents. I do not have auto-arrange selected as
a desktop option either. I unchecked "Auto Arrange" and "Align to Grid" and
then after I do the hard shutdown, these options are checked again somehow.
I am logged into the system as a local admin. The system is part of a
company domain and it is a Dell Latitude D510 laptop.
When I shutdown the system normally from the Start menu, this problem does
not occur. It only occurs when my system locks up and I have to manually
hold the power button to shutdown the system. Has anyone else seen this
problem before or have any solutions?
