Desktop icons keep rearranging after adding a new display

Hello.

Months ago I downloaded Just Cause 2 from Steam, but I had a few problems playing the game in full screen. I was searching for a solution on YouTube and I found a person who told basically told the viewers to add a new display and use that in order to get the full screen working when playing Just Cause 2. So I did that, it worked perfectly fine, but after I changed back to my regular display I noticed that the icons rearranged themselves for some reason. They rearrange every time I wake the PC up, turn it off/on and when I restart it. This has been bothering me for quite a while and now I believe it's time to fix it. If you look below you'll find a link to the YouTube video, so you can see what I actually did. You can stop watching at 0:40 as the Steam part doesn't matter.

Thanks for reading.

Kind regards,

There is no video link.

Whoops! I apologize, I don't know why it isn't there.

Nevertheless, it has been added now.

Bump. Does no one have a possible solution for my problem?

You could try Iconoid--- Iconoid - Download

Iconoid - Hide and show desktop icons, maketransparent backgrounds



Iconoid Help

I have 8.1 Pro & it works for me.

I guess I could use that. But is there no way to fix it without using third-party tools? If it's not possible then I'll use a program like Iconoid.

Thank you, David.
