    Hello

    I am in need to have the desktop icons and shortcuts on the right side of the desktop.
    All icons, files and shortcuts are automatically put on the left side of the desktop, is there any way to make it default to left instead?

    Thanks for any reply in advance! =)

    Not what I meant.
    If you save something on the desktop it is placed on the left side by default. I want to not worry about moving all icons over to the right side every time save something/create a shortcut on the desktop.

    I want it to go on the right side by default. Which i am beginning to think is impossible.

    Take a look at this program. It will allow you to create "boxes" to house different icons. By creating boxes in the right formation you should be able to make new icons appear on the right,

    It's not exactly a perfect solution, but it should get you the result you want, and it's the best i can find for you at the moment. I may have time to look for something better for you tomorrow, depending on how focused I am on my uni work...

    Thanks a lot!
    This works fine, I have no problem with system power so running this in the background works perfectly and it gave me the result I wanted.
    Props to you my friend!
