How can I change my wallpaper back to what I had before?

I accidentally made a photograph of my desktop background, how can I delete it and go back to what I had?

Since you don't specify what version of Windows you have, here is the method for XP Pro SP3:

  1. Right-click on the desktop
  2. Click on properties
  3. Click the Desktop tab
  4. Select a background from the list or click the Browse button
  5. If Browse, navigate to the image of your choice, click on it, and then click Open button
  6. Click the apply
  7. Click on the Ok button

Other versions of Windows are probably similar. See my response here if you happen to use the Windows 8 Preview of consumer.

    The ability to rotate the screen image is a characteristic of your video
    card, to help work with instructors who turn to the portrait
    orientation. Almost certainly you accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and
    an arrow key.

    Rotate using these keys.

    This means that a "record" has been changed in an "album", which makes no sense at all.

    To simplify, you understand that the folders on your computer are the place where your media files are written on your hard drives.

    You don't understand what a 'album' is. It is only a list of files in a particular order. An album does contain not any file (they are on your disk files), it's just a list, similar to a "playlist" for audio files. The albums are stored in the catalog.

    There is way to create an album by selecting the files in the organizer and eventually they sort in the order you want. You can create several albums containing a file: the file will not be duplicated, only a link to its unique location is enrolled in the various "albums". Deleting files in the list, deleting albums won't change anything for the real files.

    You can select the files to include in an album by individually selecting, selecting them by keyword or advanced search, or simply by selecting the files in a folder in the "Files" Panel It doesn't "change" files into albums.

    However, once you have an album, the organiser is able to select all the files and 'export as new files' in a new catalog empty. This duplication is the closest thing to the transformation of an album in a folder... (do not change back, though).

  • How can I change the default actions of what made the PC when I connect a camera, USB key, etc.?

    How can I change the default actions of what made the PC when I connect a camera, USB key, etc.. My Samsung intensity II is what I need it for; I want to shoot to the top of this window asking me what to do when I plug in, but one day, I was not thought and press on 'No Action' with the "always perform this action for this device" (or said something like that) checkbox checked.

    Once it is connected, go to my computer, and your camera photo or anything else that should be there.  If is isn't, it is a completely different issue.  It's done, right-click on it and select Properties.  Click the AutoPlay tab.  There is a version of dialogue enough of this "window asking me what to do."  You can figure out what to do from there.

    I tried to solve a problem when I changed your handheld to sync with my Outlook. I would like to change this back to sync with my Palm Desktop or at least change the Outlook for Palm calendar. I tried to restore windows back to before I made the changes, but for some reason, it erase all my data in the calendar.  I don't have the ability to change Palm desktop under Hotsync / Custom button.

    This will synchronize your contacts as well as Palm Desktop. Start--> programs--> Palm--> synchronization Conduit--> sync with Palm Desktop PIM. Just to give you a head. You can not split the synchronization. One or the other for all.

  • How can I change the extension back to the 'unknown Application .udt '?

    When Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Associations\ \Control Panel\All don't know that either the app should open a file type, it assigns an icon of the Virgin-sheet-of-paper file name.  In my case, I use a popular HTML editor called NoteTab (of Fooke Software Co.), and one of its internal types of dictionary files is .udt.  When I inspected the NoteTab file C:\Program Files (x 86) \NoteTab 7\Dictionaries\Default.udt, I found the icon of the Virgin-sheet-of-paper, click the context menu Open withand I forgot to uncheck the always use the selected program to open this type of file, from choose the program you want to use to open this file:.

    So I ended up linking .udt to 7 NoteTab in \Default Programs\Set Associations\.  If not maybe not a big deal, if it wasn't a search on ".udt", which gives 9 following keys in the registry...

    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\. UDT

    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\. UDT

    • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RecentDocs\. UDT

    • HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1334085195-1259877840-1684446657-1000\Software\Classes\. UDT

    • HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1334085195-1259877840-1684446657-1000\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\. UDT

    • HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1334085195-1259877840-1684446657-1000\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RecentDocs\. UDT

    • HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1334085195-1259877840-1684446657-1000_Classes\. UDT

    • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\. UDT

    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\. UDT

    Apparently, the types of files .udt have a meaning far beyond dictionary NoteTab 7 folder.  I found on Google that "UDT" can mean 'User defined Type', but it is difficult for me to accept that just link .udt to 7 NoteTab generated all regustrt keys 9 above.

    So, I find myself with this question to which I have been unable to solve: how to restore the .udt "Unknown Application" file extension in \Default Programs\Set Associations\?

    Kind regards

  • How can I change a font back to black in OE6?

I clicked the font color button, a dozen times and chose black, but he always Pat Brown on my outgoing e-mail.

    Hi Relztrah,

    Try to configure your color setings: Open OE6-> tools-> Options-> composed-> Mail-> font settings.

    If you copy and paste should normally only effect your mail new message current. All new emails should be normal (black).

  • How can I change my dvd back to Windows Media Player association?

    CyberLink Power DVD Ultra 11

    I installed a Pioneer Bd writer and had to have the software to read BD disc.  I have installed Cyberlink Power DVD Ultra 11.  There are no questions on the installation who asked me if I wanted to play any type of disc with Power DVD.

    This is what is happening.  No disc starts with Windows Media Play not yet regular DVD or CD.  They all raise Power DVD.

    I have my default player for Windows Media Player, but that makes no difference.

    Thank you

    Files

    I agree that he should have asked you which types to associate the files, but you should be able to re - join those you want with WMP just by right clicking on one of them in Windows Explorer and then selecting open with, choose default program & choosing WMP while checking that the box "always use this program...". "is defined [always, that's when even I think that].

    [Open the dialog box can be a little misleading.]  [If WMP is not one of the choices available to you, look immediately under these choices & there is a small arrow down which will reveal many more choices including WMP].

    You will need this procedure for each type of file you want to associate to WMP again.

    Discs

    You will also need to go into Control Panel, Autoplay set discs to use WMP again.

  • How can I change the font size of what I discovered in Firefox?

    I would like to view all content in Firefox in a smaller font size. How to achieve this? Thank you!

    Hello
    Have you tried the Firefox zoom feature? This initiative will increase the size of the web pages.

    • To make things bigger, press Ctrl and + at the same time.
    • To make things smaller, press Ctrl and - at the same time.
    • Pour reinitialiser to reset the size of return to normal, press Ctrl and 0 at the same time.

    You can also use the NoSquint. Add on to change the zoom level by default for all websites at the same time. After setting your overall zoom level, you can still adjust the zoom on different sites.

    With the help of NoSquint:

    1. After installation of NoSquint, make sure you have the add-on bar displayed:

      • Click the new tab button ("+") or a box empty bar tab to the right of the item and choose the module bar on the shortcut menu.
    2. Click on the % in the bar of the add-on call site preferences, then click the global settings button, then the zoom tab.
      • You can experiment with sizes greater than 125%, but it is not recommended that you will more than 150%, unless you have a large screen high resolution.

    If there are sites that are still a concern, feel free to post their URLs.

    Please let us know if this helped you!

  • How can we change the warm tone of the retina face before Flash in a colder tone?

    I'm Asian, and everybody knows we have a yellow complexion. Whenever I take a picture using the front cam, I find myself always looking like a pumpkin due to the warm tone of the lightning. If there is a setting that can change the tone of the lightning in a cooler, it would be a great feature. An example would be Snapchat. He used to have a white flash, but now he has the right to second and third warm tone flash after the first white flash of Snapchat. It isn't even a setting to prevent the flash of retina after the first white flash in Snapchat. On behalf of Asian, I hope that you consider not only the flayed fair.

    Unfortunately, set the tone of the flash is not currently a feature on the iPhone. You can directly send the suggestion to Apple to the: http://www.apple.com/feedback
