Can not change the background appearance in Windows XP computer.
Original title: background appearance
I can't change my background appearance because when I click on the icon and click on the appearance tab, it seems that the control of my background appearance was disabeled and I don't know how to reactivate it. Can you tell me how to re-enable this function within the display icon?
Hi sandradecker,
This computer is connected to a domain? You are able to change the appearance of the desktop from another user on this computer account? If necessary, follow the steps in this document to create a test user account.

Thus,.
I don't know what happened, but I had somehow the virus/trojan thingy goingonearth.com... I don't even know if it has nothing to do with my problem. I know that since discover and try to remove the virus/trojan said, I experienced a few problems:
1. my file & image icons (tiles) were literally emptied in large mode. But there is NO icon file (photo). The text/image folder is still there. The REAL folder icon shows when using small icons, but if I switch to large icons, it extends a smaller and makes VERY pixelated (sp?) (photo). In any case, I have inserted screen captures.2. When you delete a file, I noticed the associated picture icon is black (photo).
3. I can't change my desktop image using the photos, I can however change the solid color black color I want OR I can use a canvas photo and set it as my desktop. The icons below the screen background images is empty as well (photo).
I can assure you that I unchecked the "always show icons, never thumbnails" option in the Folder Options under control panel (photo).
ANY help would be appreciated, it drives me crazy.
Thank you

How can I change the background color under Windows 7 64-bit
How to get the background color of the screen to change. I went through the customization of themes and custom colors that changed some screens, but not all. I've recently updated to XP and I find it frustrating. For example, when you use ITunes, my desktop background is white which is difficult to focus on for long periods of time. On my XP machine, I was able to change the background of a light gray. Help, please.
In fact it's not Windows, it's iTunes. The latest version is very white (and very hard on the eyes). It seems just as bad on XP, you probably just the previous version of iTunes before you upgrade. Unfortunately, Apple is the only one who can change - it program iTunes, and they do not meet the standard rules of "respect the choice of the users!

Can not change the background color of the rose.
Recently, I installed Thunderbird and tried some of the controls when I did. Now, it seems that my default background color is pink. (#ffcccc) I can change it to one of the 70 standard colors for mails that I write during a session. When I close the screen of Scripture and reopen it, it comes back with the wire pink. It shows no pink on my screen but when I send it to someone else it's pink. How can I change this back to white so that it will stay like this? As I understand it, it's the normal way works only until I close the screen of Scripture.
You have under Tools(or AppMenu/Options), Options, Composition, general in the HTML section?

You should not accept a computer on which the operating system is not activated and nothing works on it.
I suggest that return you it to the shop and asked that Windows be correctly installed and activated.
See you soon.

How can I change the background to the photos in the windows image viewer.
original title: How can I change the background to the photos in the windows image viewer. I hate it in context and would like to have a black background that surrounds photos.
I had before an Adobe photoedit who saw the pictures surrounded by a black background. I accidentally deleted the adobe photoedit. So now, I find my pictures with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. However, I hate the white background that surrounds photos. How can I change the context surrounding the photos of BLACK color?
Hello
I suggest that you try to do system restore or reinstall Photoedit and check to see if it helps:
