IDEA: Lock icons in place on desktop
Josh:
I am using wintidy now, but currently it still lets icons be moved. Is there ANY way to LOCk icons on the desktop so they cannot be moved? Or an app that will password protect the desktop so that you cant move icons without a pass?
Cpilot:
If your comfortable using regedit and understand the consequences of altering the registry then go here:
Lock Icons On Desktop
If not then I could script something to do it.
Always back up your registry before making changes. :Thmbsup:

instead of finding a way to make desktop icons unmoveable, why don't you just hide them temporarily? then, your kid can use the start menu or quick-launch or an app-launcher like LaunchBar Commander... ;-)

btw, you can also try this: ToddlerTrap by Skrommel.

ok, wintidy used to work in winxp pro, but with media center it fails. I like the way wintidy works, but I have yet to find another app that does what it can. Can anyone generate an app for me that will work like wintidy does, allowing you to save layouts by name, and then have a single click restore of the icon positions?
