small icons

(1/3) > >>

Lona:
When I boot up PC, the small icons (very bottom right hand side of screen) don't always come up in the same order. My firewall icon and ant-virus icons were always beside each other but now they are either separated by the sound icon or MSN icon and at the moment they are separated by my burner icon. This did not used to happen. Is this normal?

Clive:
Mine tend to move around too Lona.  I don't know if they can be shackled down.   :D

Sandra:
Have you started up in safe mode at some time recently Lona?
If so when you go back to normal it often moves them.
The only other way normally is if you have changed the setting to auto arrange  :-*

Simon:
The System Tray icons, which you are referring to, Lona, don't always appear in the same order.  It depends how many programs fire up when you start your PC, and in which order they do so.  It really doesn't matter where the icons are (apart from cosmetically), as long as they are all present and correct.  I don't think there is any way to auto-arrange them either.   :)

Lona:
You are quite correct Sandra. I was forced to start in safe mode the other day, don't know why, but again my icons have been taking the micky out of me for a few weeks now so I can't see it being safe mode. I will keep my eye on the wee blighters ;). I just remembered, I re-installed explorer6 and now have an E icon in the tray, that's when they started moving around.  :)
