    dont ever try this steps, my systems have been erased after i change the name of the file directory. I was shocked when i restart my laptop and promp that account can't log in. Then i just repeat the process and rechange what I change previously, and delete the .bak file and restart again. Thank you for making us mad!

    Guys, If you do these steps using the same local account you will get your account corrupted and there is a step to it but that step didn’t work for me so I had to reset my pc):

And change the name back to how it was and sign out and sign in. It should work. Check the users folder in c drive. Delete the temp and extra folders. The old data is not deleted.

      I don't know of any file that controls icon placement so I think you will be stuck rearranging them manually.
