Hello everyone, I wonder if you have found that when you right-click on the desktop to refresh, the icons will be automatically arranged. In fact, the right-click---view---automatic arrangement of icons is not checked? What is the reason?
 
If you use a cleaning program, such as ccleaner for example, it can cause the refresh behavior. I noticed a few places that are a bit buggy in general too like you mentioned with checkmarks and such. I haven't tried this yet myself, but maybe check out this link and see if you can fix up the right-click context menu so that it works the way you want?

For your posts, could I suggest tidying up the titles so they are easier to read and keep track of among other threads. For example, this thread could be titled "Desktop Icon Arrangement" or something of that nature, rather than such a long title it gets truncated.

It has been tested, this registry is invalid, restarting the computer will always restore to: 1075839524
 
If using Ccleaner be sure in Custom Clean section to untick Windows - Advanced: Windows size/location cache and Applications - Windows: Folder View Settings.
Then it shouldn't mess with folder- and IconLayout.
In case you want to have a backup and restore optunity this tut include ShellBags too.
