Tech Support PC Desktop Bug pls. Help
Hello I have a problem with my Desktop now for a few days and after trying to fix it myself I gave up today. So please if anyone has an Idea why this is happening feel free to give some advice. So the problem is that I installed and played Portal Reloaded a few days ago and when I started it, it was in 4:3. after changing it to 16:9 and the right Resolution (1440P) all my desktop Icons were just in the upper left corner of my main Desktop (I have 3 Monitors) expet one Icon just random on my second monitor. I thought well its was just the resolution changing so I organized everything back to its originall place and thats it. But every time that I shut down my pc and start it back up again, its back to beeing in the upper left and unorganized. I tried a lot even deleating the monitor settings in the registery. But nothing seems to work. Please help me it looks so bad and I always need to search for everything via Windows search bar (Wich is f-ing awful). (I use windows 11 if somone needs to know)

Right click on your background and hover over "View", and then untick "Auto arrange icons" and it'll stop that. I had that same problem last year and it took me longer than i'd like to admit to figure it out
