So my desktop icons will rearrange themselves when I clean my keyboard. Is there are particular sequence of keys that would do that? Ive only ever noticed it after I clean the keyboard and I have also ensured that auto arrange is off along with other things. Any ideas?
 
Unless its a laptop, why not unplug keyboard when cleaning keys? I make sure I at least not on a text screen or in discord.

I can't see any shortcut keys that achieve that. WIn + M minimises all desktop apps, I just found that.. but nothing that moves desktop icons...

ctrl + scroll wheel changes icon size.

Darn, ok. Yea I saw similar things but I figured I might be missing something. Hey I noticed we have the same CPU (literally just got it like 1 month ago). I absolutely love the 5800x3d (big step up from a 3600)
