Hi All,

I have a customer that is temperamental about his icons being in the
"exact" location he wants. There are things both he and I do that
sometimes mess up his grand scheme. He gets pissed.

Is there a way, such as a *.reg file or otherwise that I can
do a recovery that will put his icons back the way he wants them
after he or I screws them up? Well, other than taking a screen shot.
(He has dual 22" wides screens and a screen shot will not help me
get them "exactly" back where he wants them.)

Many thanks,
-T

Heard about ''Lock the Desktop"" Right click on Desktop and select Arrange Icons By
and then check Align to Grid and Show Desktop Icons and Lock Web Items on Desktop
