If you are a person who loves to change your desktop wallpaper in many cases, I loved this trick. This trick will help you arrange and Lock desktop icons to suit your background with the screen.

Let's say, you've arranged your desktop icons to look good with the background of the new screen. Someone happens to mess with this order, and find that the icons are now covering the key elements in the background of the screen. It looks really ugly, is not it? Now you have to completely re-allocation. Rearrange the icons again and continue to do so if sharing your computer with others. To avoid this mess, you can lock the icons so you do not have to repeat this arrangement. No one can hold up in practice the main screen and even if they do, you get your computer back in a way that left the last time. Not that great?
