    Desktop icons odd spacing every time I boot up PC

    As title says. Every time I boot my PC 90% of the time the spacing is really wide with my desktop icon and my taskbar is very small. A temporary solution is to go into task manager and Restart โ€œWindows explorerโ€ every time I boot my PC. Iโ€™ve googled solutions and I keep coming across the regedit solution and regedit does NOT change before I do the โ€œwindows explorerโ€ rest and after. Screenshots provided to show

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Right click a blank spot on your desktop and make sure that the icons are not set to auto arrange.

    Could also rebuild the icon cache.

    Or add this program to your startup.

    To do this Iโ€™ll provide steps.

    Download restart explorer Unzip it into your Documents folder.
    Download the attached batch file.
    [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Unzip it to your desktop.
    Then type [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]shell:startup into the start menu.
    Open that folder.
    Drag and drop the batch file into it.
    That will auto launch and restart explorer and rebuild your icon cache at each boot. [/COLOR][/COLOR]
