+3  Q: 

Where does the system store the icons position?

The "icon view" and "folder view" on any folder is in fact a SysListView. If you uncheck Auto-arrange of the icons you can move around the icons and next time you open the folder all icons are at the same place as last time.

My question is, where does the system stores the x and y position of the icons?

Does this also cover all other folders you have in "icon view" and not just the desktop view?
