Hi,

the positions of the icons on the desktop (folder view) are not saved properly for the next startup. The icons are mostly messed up after every startup.

Best Regards,
Ettore Atalan

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Turn off the automatic sorting for icons on the desktop.
2. Arrange the icons on the desktop by hand.
3. Perform a restart.

Actual Results:  
The positions of the icons on the desktop are mostly messed up.

Expected Results:  
The positions of the icons on the desktop should be the same like before.

Could you show before and after screenshots? And do you think you may have problems with screen resolution changes during login?

I need to remove my personal files before …

I don't see any screen resolution changes during login.
