If you save a new layout setting, saved desktop restores that work reliably will be not overwritten when you save them. For example, if you want to have a new sort saved we will give you a new name. Thus, the previous / previous Icon Layout storage by DesktopOK will not be overwritten.

I prefer this kind of behavior because sometimes I add a bunch of shortcuts to your desktop, but later delete them. Symbol Restore does not restore these deleted symbols, but retains the original positions of the other symbols.
