can't move desktop icons
« on: September 03, 2005, 09:56:45 AM »
I am using Windows 98SE and in the past have been able to move icons on desktop using drag and drop. Can no longer do that. What does it want?

Right click pn your Desktop and unselect the functionthat causes it to auto-arrange icons.

I did do that and auto arrange was not checked. I did check it and then uncheck it and rebooted and now all is well, I have no idea what Bill Gates did! Thanks for your reply.
later

Good to see you resolved the situation. A program may have changed it for you, but perhaps did not tag it.
