Desktop Icons

[MaadDaawg]

Anyone know why I can't get my desktop icons small? The are set to be small in the control panel but they remain MEDIUM. I've tried resetting to medium and large - they will get large, and then resetting to small but they will never get small ??

I'm guessing the OS is screwed since I never had this problem before I tore the rig apart and replaced the video cards and water loop :Dizzy:

Have you tried left-click/right-click on the desktop and then select view? If you have a mouse with scroll there is a way to make them any custom size you desire by holding ctrl and scrolling. If all fails how about just pinning your icons to the taskbar...nice clean desktop.

That did it Rick :thumbsup: But why didn't it work in control panel?

I think you have to go to Window color/Advanced appearance settings to dial them down.
