Yes, what blows me away is that Windows still cannot do this.

Microsoft;

It is mid-2006.
People work remotely.
People can login from anywhere in the world thru the internet.
I can make design changes remotely.
There is a multitude of screen physical sizes, graphics cards & display resolutions.

..............And we still cannot save a desktop layout ( in Windows ) for recall when mine get scrambled.......

This is "calf-path" thinking in my opinion......

You can copy an existing user profile when creating a new one. I've used it
before and it did copy the desktop exactly, including icon locations.
But... I dunno if there's a way to squirt that into an EXISTING profile.
Maybe if you're willing to create a new profile each time this happens...

Sounds like a do-able utility that some folks (like you and me) would like
to have. Any registry hackers listening?

Problem;

On my office PC I have arranged my desktop icons the way I want them (
like everyone else does).
It's a 21" screen so I have a lot of room.

But when I login remotely to do a design review etc, its on a small
screen & the desktop icons get scrambled.
That is fine & understandable. But when I get back to my work PC, I
would like to be able to recall my "saved" desktop
Icon layout. Apparently, there is NO way that Windows XP Pro allows you
to do this.....( duh ??? ).

There must be a 3rd party utility that helps me with this problem.

Anyone have any leads they can share with me?

Many thanks
Regards
