Is there a way to save a dual monitor desktop state ?

[mikkydoos]

Hi all,

 

Got a fairly insignificant issue that drives me mad.

 

 

Scenario:

 

• Dual monitors on a GeForce card
  
• Re-Directed Desktop
  
• Roaming profile
  

 

I disconnect my PC from the network by pulling the plug - or this morning updating a driver...

 

When it reconnects, my desktop icons all pile onto the main monitor and I lose my incredibly organised icon layout.

 

Anyone know of a way to save the state of the icon positions?

 

 

Cheers in advance

It's not exactly a smooth way, but saves manually doing it I found

 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags\1\Desktop (ItemPosXYZ one)
