In a previous thread from 2005:

someone was experiencing the same issue I am having with an Excel spreadsheet. It is a worksheet I use for a check request voucher, where there are numerous check boxes to be "checked" depending on the type of request, etc. Each box is lined up beside each choice.

Yet when I reopen the file, the boxes have moved...not a lot, but enough so they no longer line up properly with the choices. I manually move them back into correct placement, save the document, and close. Sometimes the next time I open it, they will be fine, other times they are askew again, and sometimes the boxes stay correct for 2-3 re-opens, and then the 4th time they have moved again.

I thought that it might have to do with our Office upgrade to Excel 2010, but even if I save as a previous version of Excel, the problem persists.

The prior thread mentioned a downloadable hot-fix (which is no longer available), but I would have thought any correction like that would have been incorporated into later versions of Excel, like 2010.

So I am wondering if anyone else in the forum has been faced with this problem, specifically in later versions of Excel. If you could share your experiences/solutions, I would be very grateful.
