How save icon position on desktop ?
Im using DTI Keeper to do this.
How about in VDS ?
Putting desktop icons in list from
C:\Documents and Settings\PC\Desktop (PC is in this case user)
Getting user name with this:
%%Username = @regread(HCU,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer,Logon User Name)
How to detect icon position with pixels position remains a mistry...
Any ideas how to do this...???  |

Hi
I use the below program, its free.
Restore Desktop v2.0
http://www.softwarium.com/rdwin.html
Doing it with VDS seems it would involve getting the icons list and getting every icons position on the desktop and save it to the reg or text file, may be a pain putting it all together, never tried.
But I would use it since I dont trust most freeware no days, anything free nowdays(unless you know them) is usually the most damaging
But yeah, that would be really nice to have one made from VDS code. |
