Desktop的默认模式是自动排列图标。如果您移动一个图标或删除或添加一个新图标，那么它将重新排列自己。现在，当您连接另一台分辨率不同的显示器时，就会出现问题。图标会根据分辨率重新排列。在这篇文章中，我们将向您展示如何在断开设备时防止桌面图标移动。(keep desktop icons from moving when undocking)
您可以在图像中看到 - 当我在监视器之间切换时，回收站(Recycle Bin)的位置发生了变化。如果桌面(Desktop)上有很多图标，它们都会移动。
为什么分辨率更改时d0桌面图标会移动
如果您想知道为什么在取消停靠Windows 10时桌面图标会移动，那么它的数学很简单。假设您在连接到显示器时具有更高的分辨率，而您的笔记本电脑具有较低的分辨率。当您取消停靠时，图标的坐标不再可用，并且桌面(Desktop)会尝试重新排列以确保它们可见。
最糟糕的是，即使您禁用了桌面的(Desktop)自动排列(Auto Arrange)功能，它也会发生。它仅在您不更改分辨率时才有效。在我们继续分享一些解决方案之前，请确保任何第三方软件和Windows都不负责重新排列桌面图标和更改布局(rearranging the desktop icons and changing the layout)。
如何在脱离时防止桌面图标移动(Desktop Icons)
所以我们需要的是能够根据分辨率记住图标位置的软件或设置。经过研究，有两种方法可以做到这一点，但要视情况而定。
- 为每个桌面设置图标布局
- 使用 DesktopOK 软件
- 使用 Icon Sheperd 免费软件。
如果您每天连接到相同的分辨率或显示器，第一个工作正常。但是，如果是随机的，您可以使用第二个选项，但最终您必须根据分辨率进行设置。
1]为每个桌面(Desktop)设置图标布局(Setup Icon Layout)
我经历过的一件事是，如果您在每个显示器上设置一次图标位置，Windows似乎会记住它。我亲自尝试过使用多个桌面并切换到每个显示器作为唯一的显示器，并且它有效。因此，如果您每天将Windows 10与具有相同分辨率的同一显示器对接/取消对接，它应该可以工作。
您在上面看到的屏幕截图来自不同分辨率的不同显示器。我根据我对每台显示器的要求安排了一组图标，每次切换图标的位置都不会改变。这是关于手动方法的一件事。它现在可以工作，但是在功能更新或更改为Windows Shell后它会工作，我不能保证。
所以下一个选择是这两个应用程序。我建议使用它们，除非微软(Microsoft)正式推出可以处理它的东西。
2]桌面OK
DesktopOK是一个图标监控软件，可以非常有效地处理分辨率。当我说高效时，我的意思是过渡非常顺利。启动软件后，您只需使用该软件设置图标并保存配置文件即可。该软件最好的部分是您可以将图标布局配置文件设置为在Windows 启动(Windows Startup)期间恢复。因此，如果您每天总是直接连接到另一台显示器，这将很有帮助。您还可以设置自动保存(AutoSave)功能，因此您无需在每次更改图标位置时都保存。
您也可以选择使用DOK扩展名保存，如果您有独特的布局，您可以以相同的分辨率与您的朋友分享。
3]图标牧羊人
与我们的手动方法类似， Icon Sheperd会记住桌面图标的位置，并允许您创建配置文件。因此，一旦您为第一台显示器设置了图标的位置，请将其保存为Monitor One Icon profile，然后是Monitor Two Icon profile 。每次切换到该监视器配置文件时。您可以根据分辨率、会议室、投影仪名称等命名配置文件。
切换显示时可能需要 15-20 秒，因为它会尝试对齐图标但自动失败。因此，我们建议保存配置文件，然后手动切换到它的原因。
该软件可以免费使用，但有一个条件。 您可以在家中的 一(one)台私人计算机上免费(free of charge)使用一份Icon Shepherd。如果您想在多台计算机上使用它，那么购买一台是个好主意。
我们只能希望微软(Microsoft)在多显示器和使用第二显示器变得普遍的情况下原生构建了这个功能。它将确保在脱离Windows 10时防止桌面图标移动。所以在微软(Microsoft)实施之前，我们有这些免费软件来帮助我们。
How to keep Desktop Icons from moving when undocking - Windows 10
The default mode of Desktop is to auto-arrange iсons. If you move an icon or deletе or add a new one, then it will rearrange itself. Now the prоblem happens when you connect another monitor, whiсh has a different resolution. The icons rearrange themselves baѕed on the resolution. In this post, we will show yоu how you can keep desktop icons from moving when undocking your device.
You can see in the image – when I switch between monitors, the location of Recycle Bin changes. If you have a lot of icons on the Desktop, they will all move.
Why d0 desktop icons move when resolution changes
If you are wondering why the desktop icons move when undocking Windows 10, then its simple maths. Let’s assume you have a higher resolution when connected to a monitor while your laptop has a lower resolution. When you undock, the co-ordinates of the icons are not available anymore, and the Desktop tries to rearrange to make sure they are visible.
The worst part is that it will happen even if you have disabled Auto Arrange feature of the Desktop. It only works when you don’t change the resolution. Before we go ahead and share some solutions, make sure that neither any third-party software nor Windows is responsible for rearranging the desktop icons and changing the layout.
How to keep Desktop Icons from moving when undocking
So what we need is software or a setting that can remember the position of the icons based on the resolution. After researching, there are two ways of doing this, but it depends on the situation.
- Set up Icon Layout for each Desktop
- Use DesktopOK software
- Use Icon Sheperd freeware.
The first one works fine if you are connecting to the same resolution or monitor every day. However, if it’s random, you can use the second option, but in the end, you will have to set up based on the resolution.
1] Setup Icon Layout for each Desktop
One thing which I have experienced is that if you set up icons position once on each display, Windows seems to remember it. I have personally tried it with multiple desktops and switching to each display as the only monitor, and it worked. So, if you keep docking/undocking Windows 10 with the same monitor with the same resolution every day, it should work.
The screenshots which you see above are from different monitors which different resolutions. I had arranged a set of icons based on my requirement on each monitor, and every time I switch the position of icons don’t change. Here is one thing about the manual method. It works now, but will it work after a feature update or change to Windows Shell, I cannot guarantee that.
So the next option is these two applications. I would suggest using them unless Microsoft officially rolls out something that can handle it.
2] DesktopOK
DesktopOK is an icon monitoring software and works very efficiently with resolutions. When I say efficiently, I mean that the transition is very smooth. Once you launch the software, all you need to do set up your icon and save the profile using the software. The best part of the software is that you can set the icon layout profile to restore during Windows Startup. So if you always dock directly to another monitor every day, this is helpful. You can also set up an AutoSave feature, so you don’t need to save every time you change the icon placements.
You can also choose to save with name with DOK extension, and if you have a unique layout, you can share it with your friend with the same resolution.
3] Icon Sheperd
Similar to our manual method, Icon Sheperd will remember the position of the desktop icons, and allow you to create a profile. So once you set up the icon’s position for 1st monitor, save it as Monitor One Icon profile, and then Monitor Two Icon profile. Every time you switch to that monitor profile. You can name the profile based on resolution, meeting rooms, projector name and so on.
It may take 15-20 seconds when you switch display as it tries to align the icons but fails automatically. Hence the reason we suggested to save profile, and then switch to it manually.
The software is free to use, but there is one condition. You can use one copy of Icon Shepherd on one of your private computers at home, free of charge. If you want to use it on more than one computer, then it is a good idea to purchase one.
We can only wish that Microsoft has this feature natively built now that multiple monitors, and usi9ng a second monitor has become common. It will make sure to keep desktop icons from moving when undocking Windows 10. So until Microsoft implements it, we have these free software to help us out.
