Screen resolution and my desktop icons get messed up when ever I load up my valorant.
I tested it with different accounts, but there seems to be no issue. Matched all my settings but still

It sounds like launching VALORANT is causing your screen resolution to change, which in turn is messing up your desktop icons. Here's a potential solution to resolve this issue:
1. Check In-Game Resolution Settings:
- Open VALORANT.
- Go to Settings > Video > Resolution.
- Make sure the resolution matches your desktop's native resolution.
2. Adjust Windows Display Settings:
- Right-click on your desktop and select Display settings.
- Ensure your display resolution matches the in-game resolution you set in VALORANT.
3. Run VALORANT in Windowed/Borderless Mode:
- Instead of Fullscreen, try switching to Windowed Fullscreen or Borderless mode in VALORANT settings. This can sometimes prevent resolution changes.
4. Update Graphics Drivers:
- Ensure your graphics drivers are up to date. Visit your GPU manufacturer’s website (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) for the latest drivers.
5. Disable DPI Scaling:
- Right-click VALORANT shortcut > Properties > Compatibility tab.
- Check "Disable fullscreen optimizations".
- Click Change high DPI settings and check "Override high DPI scaling behavior", set to Application.
These steps should help maintain your desktop's resolution and prevent your icons from rearranging.
