• Impossible to change the desktop theme, screen goes black and blocks

  Original title - Desktop Windows Manager

  Every time I try to change my theme of office (and now every time windows starts), he tells me that I can't run any of the aero themes. I'm trying to troubleshoot my screen becomes black, then I get an error message:

  I've updated all my drivers, including the BIOS, I've tried almost all methods I found online to solve the problem, and I would really like to avoid to restore my system simply because this Dwm.exe decided to stop working... I did not install new programs recent, nor have, I changed the parameters significantly... advice?
  I'm running a 64-bit windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1,
  If you need more information on my system, I'll be happy to provide.

  The module failed (StackHash_1dc2) is not formally identified.

  You can check the event viewer for error and see if the module failed is identified:

  Start > type eventvwr in the box "search programs and files", then press 'Enter' > expand "Custom views" > "administrative events.

  Are looking through 'administrative events' Application errors involving Dwm.exe

  Double click on each event for more details.

  The symptoms you have described as the loss of Aero, I suspect a component connected to the graphics driver may be the issue.

  For example in this link , make back the graphic driver Intel seems to help.

  What is a stand-alone computer or a part of a domain? So autonomous:

  If you can't change the wallpaper - start > Control Panel > accessibility > Ease of Access Center. Under "Doing things on the screen easier to see," uncheck the option 'delete the images of background (if available). Choose 'save '.

  If this does not help, download wallpaper_enable.reg from the following link - http://www.winhelponline.com/fixes/wallpaper_enable.reg

  Save the file to the desktop. Right-click on the file and select "merge".

  Run a scan for malware by installing the tool following "Malwarebytes" from the link: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html

  Make sure that you update the Malwarebytes tool before you run the analysis and then run a full scan and remove if infected files found on the computer.

  After that, open a Notepad and copy the following text and save it as desktop.reg on your desktop

• Tried to change the desktop image and lost all of them.

  iPhoto was opened I was looking for an image specific, but also decided that it would be a good idea to multi-task with my iMac and tried to change the image of the desktop at the same time. Apparently, it wasn't the best idea. While seeking photos through system preferences, a pop-up asked if I wanted to pass something. I'll tell you... I didn't read entirely, but thought that he wanted to reopen iPhoto in System Preferences, since I had the app open on its own. I clicked 'OK', which seems to be the point of civilization to collapse, as it appears that I lost all the photos stored in my iPhoto library! What I did and how can I fix? Everyone?

  Hold down the option key while launching iPhoto and using more select Library window select the correct iPhoto library

  If somehow you deleted it (nothing you described in your question can result in the deletion of the iPhoto library) and then restore your backup iPhoto library until you have removed

  Change the screen resolution

  Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  See you soon.

• How to change the classic theme of the Windows 7 theme window?

  I changed the theme of my windows 7 Stater to classic window but I 'can' t get it back
  on right click to see the "screen resolution" and "gadgets".

  I went to Services and "themes" has been disabled. So I've enabled and rebooted the computer. I was still classic, but this time when I went to the control panel (all) > display > color scheme (for the umpteenth time) he included Basic option, whereas before it was only conventional and contrast.

• Album art WMP12 will not change the desktop

  Whenever I have on my desktop of my Windows 7 Ultimate 64 music, album art remains the same. Months, I had a song on my desktop that had its own art from the album, and now that I moved the song in my music folder, any song that I put on my desk, rest the same album art as a single individual. But when I play a song from my record music, WMP starts and I just get the music for the album art note. How can I clear the desktop album art? I had some songs on my desk with album art and I play and it comes up with album art, but then a song that does not, it goes back to album art of the song of the first.

  
  

  X.MP3 is the first song that the album cover is on and xy.mp3 are all the other mp3s. and when xy.mp3 is playing, album art of rest x.mp3

  Please help, it's boring.

  
  

  Thank you

  Hello sterlingsilv3r,

  If you had saved to the desktop Album art, you remove the arts album before moving them to your music folder?

  You should try to remove all the Arts of the Album you had saved on your desktop.

  Make sure Show also that hidden files and folders also protected operating system files, and then check if hidden files appear on the desktop.

  1. Open Folder Options by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options.
  2. click on the view tab.
  3. under Advanced settings, click Show files and folders and then click OK.

  Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files"

  Thank you

• How to get Freecell on the desktop

  You can get as part of the Collection of Solitaire of Microsoft App Freecell. But this version is worthless since it works only full screen. Here's how to get Freecell to run in a window on the desktop of Windows 8.

  Copy the files name freecell.exe and cards.dll from a Windows XP computer to a folder on the computer of Windows 8.  Create a shortcut to freecell.exe.  You are finished.  I have not tested on the rest of Windows XP card games, but I think it works as well with them.
  Bill

  Thank you, thank you.  I like Freecell and the version of Windows XP is the best day for my money.  I did what you say, then created a shortcut and that settles on the desk of the desktop Windows 8.1.  FreeCell and the shortcut work beautifully.

  I got on the other two files: freecell.chm and freecell.hlp, but I don't think they do anything.

  If so many people like this version, and I think it's true, why not Microsoft do so so easily accessible?  They already have it.

• Change the Flekristal theme

  I found this theme on the exchange of Flex:

  http://www.Adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail & loc = en_US & extid = 1229 # 018

  I like it a lot and I would use it, but I need to make some changes.  But being a newbie completely, I do not understand something.  Most of the reference CSS selectors an embedded resource:

  
  

  AccordionHeader
  {
  
  disabledSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_disabledSkin");
  downSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_downSkin");
  overSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_overSkin");
  selectedDisabledSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_disabledSkin");
  selectedDownSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_downSkin");
  selectedOverSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_overSkin");
  selectedUpSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_selectedSkin");
  upSkin: Embed (source = "flekristal_skin.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_upSkin");
  
  }

  Inside the 'source' for the theme zip, there is this file "flekristal_skin.swf".  But I can't find the original works of art, or the actionscript or MXML skin source code.  In other words, the original content is missing?  How it would then make changes... or is the idea that you get the compiled skin and you cannot make changes...?  Help!

  The SWF seems to be a file generated from flash resource, so unless you have the flekristal_skin.fla of source file, which will be opened in adobe Flash, you will not be able to change the active file. You can try to ask the developer of theme for the .fla file if you want to actually change the assets.

• Change the desktops sometimes causes reboot

  Hello! Since the upgrade to Sierra this morning, I found a pretty annoying bug. Several times I have "swept" my Magic Mouse to turn on my second monitor to desktop computers, my iMac mid-2011 restarts. Nothing seems abnormal in Mission Control, but I don't know where else to look for clues on how to prevent this.

  Does anyone else have this problem?

  Hi there HippieBoy!

  Welcome to the communities of Apple Support and thank you for bringing your question about your Magic Mouse having problems switching to the desktop on your second monitor and restart your iMac.  I love being able to use a second monitor and have my iMac spontaneously reboot would get old real fast for me.  It's my pleasure to help you today.

  If you go to System Preferences > accessibility and then remember to uncheck Reduce motion, which should fix this for you.  For more information on the Motion to reduce under macOS Sierra:

  macOS Sierra: reduce the movement of the screen

  Take care and have a great day!
