I have this problem on 3 machines i have the latest Ultramon on.. I use DESKTOPOK to keep my icons in certain places, but when ultramon loads (either via startup or manually), it shifts al the desktop icons over to the left side, Even tho the option to "Remember desktop icons" is disabled in it.
Its VERY annoying as i have to then go into my system tray to desktopok and manually set them back.
This happens on Every reboot.

Just so you know, i stopped it from running at startup and DesktopOK restores my icons perfectly.. Once i run it (from start menu or directly from the app itself) all the icons fly to the left and i have to reset them again.
Definatley ultramon. Im using the latest 3.3.0 too.

Could be related to the additional taskbar getting added, what happens if you disable the Smart Taskbar under UltraMon Options > Smart Taskbar?

I'll try it now let u know.. (Ive always used smart taskbar, never had an issue til about update before this one).

YES.. Smart Taskbar seems to be the culprit.. When its off and Ultramon loads, no icons move. When i reenable it, they all shoot to the left..
Looks like we found something to fix :)

What are your icon settings? You can see those by right-clicking the desktop, then select View from the menu.

This (btw) only started happening since id say the 3.3.0.. Previous to this release i didnt have any issue.

Not sure what might cause this, it could be related to screen area getting reserved for the taskbar (for example if you have an icon at the bottom of the screen it will get moved up when the taskbar gets added to the bottom), but otherwise I haven't seen any icon movement when starting the taskbar (I tested with your icon settings).
3.3.0 does handle reserving screen area a bit differently than earlier versions, if you're interested I could create a test version of UltraMonTaskbar.exe which handles this like 3.2.2 to determine if that's what causes the issue. If you would like to do this please contact me at support@realtimesoft.com.

I sent an email back, its the same with this new file you gave me.. Im going to perhaps try to revert back to an older version see if i can pinpoint exactly where it changed..
Of note, once i set the ultramon is loaded and i reset the icons its not like they go back when im doing something else (they do move if i say, close explorer.exe and relaunch it).. I could show you this on a remote session if you wanted if you think it would help.

Screen area may again get reserved when explorer.exe restarts (explorer.exe handles the main taskbar). Let me know how it goes with 3.2.2.
