After many years of windows. I have certain things burned into my brain. A desktop doesn't look right unless all icons are aligned left. Is there a way to do this, that will keep this setting permanently?
You can move them, but once you restart, they'll move back to the right (at least the drive icons will). There's not much you can do about it other than accept it.
