Topic: Is there a reason why I cannot drag icons around my desktop?

La Reina Catalina !j0siCathyI started this discussion 1 year ago #121,959

My mouse is working fine. I looked up tutorials on a potential fix and none of them work. My icons weren't arranged to a grid, and I fucked up so now all of my shit is grouped together manually. It's fucking ugly.

Can someone help me out here?

Right click, select View, untick "auto arrange icons".

I resolved it. Apparently, all I had to do was restart my computer.

When all else fails that's what I do. Maybe I should just start doing that first.

That's happened to me before. Only a reboot fixes it. Windows being Windows, lol.
