Vista - Desktop icons move after "switch user"

I have the exact same issue as Howie:
DESKTOP ICONS MOVING AFTER ANOTHER USER LOGS IN VIA "SWITCH USER"
(ie When one logs back into one's own user space - all the icons have moved!)

I too have two users on my new "notebook" with Vista Business
Both have (groups of) Icons placed in different areas of the desktop.
But after my daughter has logged into her user space via "switch user"
almost ALL (bar 3 or 4 out of 28) icons IN MY USER SPACE get moved,
out of any logical order, and pushed to the left side again!
I have to sort them all out all over again which is such a gross time water,
however, if they stay this way for a while, it is a time saver, coz I know exactly
where EVERYTHING is when its in my well sorted way on the desktop.

This doesn't happen at all after "shutdown", just switching users causes it.

PLEEEEEEZ help somebody - this is immensely frustrating & time wasting!!
Surely there must be a little box somewhere in Vista that says "save desktop setup" or something similar?!?

I Hope Howie has found a solution, as I totally understand your issue Howie.
Good luck to us hOPe somebody else out there has worked it out
(PS Howie's thread was a while ago in case ur all wondering "who's Howie?"

Hello Janeeni,

I had this same problem myself when I first updated my rig. The problem in my case was a weird issue, but it is now fixed. Try unchecking "Align to Grid" and "Auto Arrange" on the desktop by right clicking and hovering over "view"
