Hi Tom,

Couple of questions:

- Are the icons not being restored at all, or are they restored but just not the position?
- Which version of Flex Profiles are you using?
- Could you post the content of your Flex Profiles .INI file?

Kind Regards,
Rodney

hi Rodney!

did a lot of tests and after a few hours of work i found out that this key was responsible for not restoring the icon positions.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

i took it out of my windows_and_ie.ini and now it works fine
