Icon Spacing

From the Desktop, right-click and go to Display properties, Appearance tab, and then Advanced. In the Item dropdown list, select Icon Spacing ??????, and make a selection other than the default of 43.

It only changes the desktop for some reason. Thanks though.

Tried it...

It only changes the size the quality, which I have adjusted, and still no go. The weird thing is it hasn't always been like this. It just started a few days ago before my first post. I restored back a few days but still nothing, so I'm lost. Is there anything in the registry perhaps?

Sorry.

But I fear I can't find that registry entry. However there are PAYWARE registry tweakers with more settings that may help.

Sorry but I don't know about a freebie.

I found a way to make the actual thumbnails smaller which helps a little, but I'll keep searching. Thanks for all your help!
