Locking/Pinning Windows 10 desktop icons in place

Q. Is there any way in Windows10 to keep desktop icons in place? Windows seems to want to shift them around on occasion. I know you used to be able to right-click, freeze them in place with a setting, lock icons in place, and then uncheck auto arrange, but I’m not finding that in Win10.
