Please help! I have tried everything to fix this and I'm
lost! Please e-mail me if you can help w/ the answer.
Someone messed with my computer.My problem is All my
desktop folders and icons line up to the left of my
screen.when i drag a item to put it in a different
location on my desktop it goes back to the left side. It
didnt use to be this way. I need to group folders and
icons in a certain way, where I want on the desktop. So if
anyone knows how to fix this I would be ever GRATEFUL
Thanks - Bryce
 
Hi BRYCE.

This is my reply to your post.

Prior to answer your question, I would like to give you a little suggest.
This is a specific NEWSGROUP AREA dedicated to ACTIVE DIRECTORY on WINDOWS 2000 Systems.
For the future, please refer to other specific newsgroup for DESKTOP operating systems, such as, for example, "WINDOWS XP CUSTOMIZING" in the area dedicated to "WINDOWS XP PRO" in the "DESKTOP OPERATING SYSTEM" newsgroup section.

Ok, after this, let's talk about problem.

In WINDOWS 98/2000/XP systems you simply have to:

a) right click the mouse in a random position of your desktop (in a free area). The MENU appears;

b) select "ARRANGE ICON"; immediately the "ARRANGE ICON SUBMENU" appears;

c) verify that the "AUTO ARRANGE" option is selected;

d) simply "UNSELECT" this option

Now you'll be able to customize your desktop again!

That's all, HOPE THIS HELPS YOU!

Have a nice day

Bye
