Desktop Icon Manager
Changing the resolution on the system normally misplaces the icons that have been placed on the desktop which will be noticed when changing the resolution back to the original one. Say you use a 1280×1024 resolution normally and have to reduce the resolution to 1024×768 to work with an application properly. Every icon on the right side of the screen will be moved to the left when changing the resolution so that it still fits on the screen and can be interacted with.
Windows however does not automatically move the icons to the right side again when changing the resolution to a higher one. It's not a big problem if you change the resolution once a year but if you have to do it several times a week it becomes a burden.
Enter the Desktop Icon Manager. This little program saves the current layout of the icons on the desktop in combination with the resolution and can restore the layout with the click of the mouse button.
Supported are the creation of one standard profile that can be restored or individual profiles for each resolution which would come in handy if you work with different resolutions all the time.
Each icon on the desktop is represented by a black dot. Hoovering the mouse over the icon reveals information about that icon.
