Good afternoon friends. How to pin icons on the Windows 10 desktop? Have you noticed that as soon as you install a certain game or as soon as you launch it, in Windows 10 you notice that the screen resolution may become different? Then, more desktop icons can automatically move to the left side of the screen.
All rules that were previously configured by system administrators may be violated. A similar violation in the location of shortcuts sometimes appears when a TV or other device is connected to the computer. To set the icons correctly on your computer screen, you need to learn the following tips.

Good evening. I installed Windows 10, but I’m not satisfied with one thing. The shortcuts on the desktop are not pinned, I unchecked the view -> arrange icons, but it’s still such crap. I tried unchecking the view -> align icons to grid, but after After rebooting, it was set back. Please help.
Video card if anything AMD Radeon HD 7850.

Same crap. And the Internet is silent on this matter. Also in the folders, the menu settings - View - disappear as soon as you collapse the folder. Help! I've been suffering for a week!

Try the “seven” method - Right click on the slave. table - view. Check the “align icons to grid” box. Uncheck “Arrange icons automatically”.
I’m not sure of the result, since I don’t use an untested system, but it’s an option.

Adding and removing icons
Windows 10 offers another interesting feature - hiding system directories from the desktop. If you need to always have at hand (or vice versa, not flash before your eyes) the icon for launching “Control Panel”, “Recycle Bin”, “Network”, each of them can be changed.
The setup is carried out in the following way: “Personalization” → “Themes” → “Icon settings...”.
- add to Desktop or hide five system directory icons that are displayed in the screenshot above;
- replace the icon of any element by selecting it from the Windows 10 system library or any third-party graphic or executable (exe, dll) file;
- reset the appearance of system folders to standard;
- prohibit/allow themes to implement their own icons for system directories.
How to pin shortcuts to Windows 10 desktop - YouTube
Fewer shortcuts on the desktop and disable everything from startup. Updated to Windows 10 - icons on the desktop, taskbar and folders blink continuously. Empty desktop. Absolutely empty. As a result, shortcuts, icons, the start button, basically everything are constantly blinking on the desktop! Nothing can be done, nothing can be opened or closed.
If experienced comrades don’t tell me what to fix in this assembly, I’ll go with seven, although I’ll have to rearrange a lot of programs. I read here in a nearby topic that an antivirus can block some files or services when updating, which is of course strange.
The antivirus may be disabled or removed before updating the system. There will be errors in the event log where Explorer.exe closes and modules of third-party programs may appear there.
Disable them one by one and try to boot in normal mode. Everything was resolved after removing it and cleaning the registry. In the list that opens, right-click on any service and select “Start services”. A window with all services will appear. True, it’s also of little use. You also can’t open a single application, basically nothing... although you can shut down the work in a civilized manner.
In the “Windows Task Manager” window, go to the “Applications” tab and click on the “New task” button
How can I solve this problem? It turned out to be a chocolate aftertaste, now both the video card drivers and explorer seem to be messed up. Boot into Safe Mode with support for network drivers. The problematic driver will be the one that is disabled at the time of successful loading. If this does not help and you use all sorts of “improvers and adders” for the Start menu, look for the problem in them. You can start by disabling them if possible, or removing them to test the theory.
There have been cases where the problem was with the StartsBack program
In my opinion it was on this site: Open the task manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) - Services. When reopened, this no longer happens. For some reason I immediately thought of a virus. I tried to log in through safe mode. The same. They removed several programs that were suspicious of me and rebooted. The site does not provide electronic versions of works, but is only engaged in collecting and cataloging links sent and published on the forum by our readers.
Tell me what this could be connected with
Such programs need to be removed. If deleting programs does not solve the problem, then launching it allows you to use recovery commands. Same problem too. I don’t understand this problem at all. One thing...Task Manager does not respond to crazy screen updates.
Antivirus 360 Internet Security
Everything is normal, the icons do not blink. I began to notice that when I opened any folder for the first time after loading Windows (be it “games” or “my computer”), all the shortcuts on the desktop blinked once. Immediately after starting or rebooting the system, this problem does not appear, but as soon as I start some process or even open the Start menu, all the icons and shortcuts start blinking.

Windows 10 - how to pin a website shortcut to the Start screen
February 29, 2016 Vladimir Home page » Your computer
Hello friends! Surely, there are sites with which you start every day on the Internet, and maybe even those that you visit several times daily. For added convenience, icons for some of the most popular sites can be placed as tiles on the Windows Start screen. Today we will look at how to pin a website shortcut to the Windows 10 Start screen.
Add a site to your Start screen using Microsoft Edge
The easiest way to add a site tile to the Start screen is to use Microsoft Edge, the standard Windows 10 browser. To do this, open the desired site in Edge and open the settings menu by clicking on the button with three dots in the upper right corner of the browser.
Select “Pin this page to your Start screen” and confirm your intentions in the dialog box.
Now open the start screen and make sure that the tile of the Yandex.Webmaster site used as an example appears at the very bottom of the start screen, as required.
If you are not satisfied with this position of the added site, move it to a more suitable place on the start screen by clicking with the left mouse button. That's it, the work is finished. Similarly, you can add a tile of any web page you want to your Windows Start screen.
So, you can easily and simply perform this operation using the Microsoft Edge browser. True, a tile added in this way will also open in this browser, which does not suit all users. For those who don't want to use the native Windows 10 browser, there are other ways to pin sites to the Start screen.
Adding a Site to the Home Screen Using an Alternative Browser
Users who are unsatisfied with Microsoft Edge can add the desired site tile to the Start screen using the browser they are used to. This method, although it includes several additional steps, is also very simple.
First of all, you need to create a shortcut on your desktop for the site (web page) selected to add to the home screen, for example, All about sports.
Right-click on the created shortcut and select “Copy” from the menu.
Open the Run window by pressing the Win + R key combination and enter shell:programs in the Open line. Click OK.
Paste the contents of the clipboard (copied shortcut) into the folder that opens in Explorer. To do this, right-click on an empty space in the folder and select “Paste” from the menu. In this case, the site shortcut should appear among other folder objects.
At the same time, the site shortcut will also appear in the “All applications” list of the “Start” menu.
Now all that remains is to add a new shortcut to the desired location on the start screen, that is, hold down this shortcut with the left mouse button and drag it to the start screen. By the way, in the same way you can add any application from the left column to the home screen if the need arises.
Unpinning a tile that has become unnecessary from the start screen is quite simple. You need to right-click on it and select “Unpin from Start Screen” from the menu.
That's all. I hope the article was useful to you. Now you know exactly how to pin a site shortcut to the Windows 10 Start screen if necessary. Thank you for your attention.
See you again on the Spectr-rv.ru blog. Good luck!

Replacing the directory icon
There are virtually no differences from specifying a new look for a shortcut and a folder.
1. Open the “Properties” window of the directory (applicable to any folder except system folders).
2. Activate the “Settings” tab.
3. In the “Folder Icons” form, click “Change icon...”.
How to fine-tune icon size
If the method presented above did not help you adjust the icons to the size you need, then you can use another, more subtle customization option. It will allow you to resize labels in small increments. The user can choose from 20 sizes – from the smallest to the largest. To do this, you need to hold down the “Ctrl” key and simultaneously turn the mouse wheel - when you scroll down, the size of the icons will decrease, and when you scroll up, they will increase. For a laptop that does not have a wheel strip on the touchpad or does not have the ability to connect a full-fledged mouse, this option will not work.
