A few months ago I switched to a new laptop, then immediately downloaded windows upgrade on it, so I don't know which factor causes this. But ever since, every time I rename a file on the desktop, windows immediately moves the file to the upper left corner of the screen, or the nearest open space to this point. This is confusing when I'm trying to keep track of and arrange my desktop files in some other way, and I have to keep moving the file back to where I want it.

This, like the first reply, is also incorrect.
Yes, it's been established in this thread that there is something else that's causing this issue with 4K monitors. There is, as of yet, no marked answer for this question.
Be sure to report this issue via the Feedback Hub in Windows.
This, like the first reply, is also incorrect.
Same issue, everythings checks out, multiple monitors, 4k resolution, high end machine, renaming on desktop, folders don't move, files do.
I honest give up.
I not made a new account, but have fix the issue to half. I made the resolution from 4k do full hd and the problem is fix. When i make 4k again, the issue is coming.
Please write here, if someone found a fix for the problem.
