windows 10 icons sometimes no text after reboot

Very strange. That sounds like your monitor is giving erroneous information for the video card. What type of a cable are you using? VGA (analog), DVI or HDMI?

Also, it still might be a driver auto-update issue.

It happened with my old monitor and now my new one 144hz asus. I use DVI D I think. I know it's dvi.

Going off the OP post every week or so when I reboot my computer everything resets. All my icons move to the left. My screen resolution drops to terrible quality and I gotta change everything back. Windows 10 upgraded from 7. Any ideas.

Go into msconfig and check the boot tab.  Under boot options, check to see if "base video" is checked.  If it is, uncheck it, as this will force a boot into a lower resolution.

With regards to the original post the latest Windows 10 update (version 1703) should fix the problem.

When I rebooted after a big update yesterday, the very first reboot after applying changes resulted in the display problem.  No text for any of the icons, and the bottom task bar and notifications area messed up.

Another reboot put it back to normal, as usual.

On my desktop, the last reboot shuffled all my icons around on my desktop.  Super annoying when windows decides that the way I have organized the desktop isn't right, and shuffles them and stuffs them all on the left side of monitor 1.

You're lucky if you don't see yet another update come down.

Yeah, precisely why I started using DesktopOK more than a year ago. As to white icons, yes it's MS messing with us yet again.

Microsoft is doing something that is preventing Firefox from normal operations. They have not admitted it, but you can see it in action if you cold boot and try to initiate Firefox immediately. I really want to do an OS reset to get things back to a pristine condition, but that means reinitiating DCS AGAIN, and some of those modules are limited in activations.
