Windows 7 Ultimate does not show wallpaper after update in Vista Business

I did the upgrade from Vista business to Windows 7 Ultimate and cannot make a wallpaper of work. I can select only solid colors, but not images or slideshows. I googled for similar problems and it seems people offer various solutions, including through 0 to some attributes of registry related to Active Desktop under HKLM or HKCU Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / policies... And also checking / unchecking a few boxes that appear under easy access control panel, but nothing seemed to help. So I'm a bit lost and it's pretty depressing always focus on the black background, knowing tones of beautiful images are waiting for show it :(
Can anyone suggest what can be done in this case? New - only full office colors can be changed at this point...

I finally thought to myself... I don't know which two actions helped, but here's what I did:

1. I made an order of setwallpaper default under various graphic files pointing to Windows Photo Viewer CLSID extensions (before they were pointing to a different CLSID, which I believe was Office Fax Viewer - {ff609cc7-d34d-4049-a1aa-2293517ffcc6}). Here's how I did it:

-In RegEdit, I searched "wallpaper" and under HKCR\SystemFileAssociations, he found several extensions (.bmp, .jpg, etc) where I swapped the value for a key 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.bmp\Shell\setdesktopwallpaper\Command\DelegateExecute' of {ff609cc7-d34d-4049-a1aa-2293517ffcc6} to {FFE2A43C-56B9-4bf5-9A79-CC6D4285608A}

- Then he found similar key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - their values were already set to {FFE2A43C-56B9-4bf5-9A79-CC6D4285608A}, but it won't hurt to check

2 then I removed the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Control Panel\Desktop\Wallpaper". This key has an empty value - so I assumed that there is not much use and then shortly after I did it I got my wallpaper of the theme chosen.

    After that I've upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows does not recognize my Tunsten E2 cable into the USB port.  I went to Device Manager to search for a triangle in order to use Aceeca.  However, there is no triangle.

    I tried using a USB key into the USB port and it worked perfectly.  However, when I tried my cable of tungsten, it's as if nothing happened in the USB port.  No recognition by Windows at all.

    Any viable solution would be much appreciated.

  • Windows XP Pro does not correctly load after the release of the Radeon graphics driver

    Hello

    I have a Shuttle XPC with Windows XP Pro and an ATI Radeon Sapphire graphics card. The entire system is 5-6 years, if that helps my raw description.

    My graphic card Radeon has had performance problems, so I downloaded ATI "autodetect tool" and he did choose the update of the driver concerned. After installation and reboot, my PC load Windows XP, but remains unused in ' grainy 8 colors low resolution version ' of my office. No icons, toolbar or whatever it is well visible. The mouse moves the pointer autour, but does not respond to clicks. The only combination of keys which gives anything is Ctrl + Alt + Delete, raise the usual options (in this case useless) to lock the computer, close the session, stop etc.

    In short, it seems that I'm not really on my desk, even if it loaded my wallpaper by default.

    'Safe mode' or "last working configuration" does not take me anywhere useful.

    How to contact with the system to at least start to change my settings for graphics cards?

    I thank very you much for any help.

  • Laptop HP Pavilion 2320DX g4: computer hp laptop pavilion g4 does not start successfully after update and return to windows 8.1

    Hi, I have recently updated my laptop to Windows 10. He had so many problems and I didn't like it at all, so I just returned my laptop to Windows 8.1.  Since then, my laptop does not correctly every time, and the fan immediately starts to work as well. I can start my pc and connect to my home screen each time.  If the tile is moving or light up when I move my cursor, then I know that I can use my laptop for a little while. It can freeze after getting out a good program. Other times when I start my laptop, everything is dead except for logging on my screen. My Windows key on the keyboard does not work most of the time.  If the screen does not respond the first time I turn, as described above, I can't absolutely nothing on my pc. I can't access the search bar by moving the cursor to top right, I can't open the tiles, I can't spend in desktop mode, etc.  Front I upgraded to Windows 10 and downgraded to 8.1 all worked perfectly, because I've updated from 8.0 to 8.1 Windows almost 2 years.  I have a defective battery. in fact I can only use my laptop if it is plugged. My fan is constantly going, but I don't know if it's my loss of battery or what's wrong with my pc now.  I have described my problem in the Microsoft community forum but have had little response that was not helpful. I was told to go to the command prompt and put in DISM: scan now (which also contained letters more than that, but I do not remember all). I followed the instructions and for 2 days, my pc seems to do better. Then he returned to this problem again. I hope you can help me.  If you have additional questions, post here or please email me at [removed personal information]. Thank you!

    @DWESTDEWITT,

    Hello and thanks for the display on the HP support forum.  What you can do at this point that there are several updates released by microsoft and hardware vendors is running the Windows Update Troubleshooter.

    If this fails to solve the problem.  The only option will be to restore the operating system to the previous, until HP gets the drivers so that they can release them on the support page for your laptop for Windows 10.

    Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

  • Windows 7 Enterprise does not start successfully after re - install

    I have just reinstalled Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit with SP1 on my laptop HP 6715 b. (I use 32 bits for any software that I develop is always compatible 32-bit.)

    After you have re-installed however, it does not start correctly. What came with windows announce "Starting Windows", but the following animation never - start the four lights that turn and turn into the "Flying Windows Icon.  It then crashes right there - do nothing, no matter how long wait.

    If I can put the machine power off and re - start, we are at the "Windows Recovery screen" - because it has not started correctly the last time.  From there, I can choose to make a recovery and return to the last Point of good restoration, i.e. on a freshly installed system before the update of Windows, of course.

    If I select "Start Windows normally", it starts however. But it is not 'Normal '. For example I can't finish my "Windows Easy Transfer".  It says that it cannot connect to my domain name - even if I am connected to my area and have been using it to install other software.

    Or I can do a Windows Update "normally". The last time I tried, it is gone for hours without finding what be - so I left it overnight. In the morning he had apparently found nothing yet.  However when I turned off the machine and then turn it again - he told me there are 211 updates installed.  WHO has literally all day.

    I'm not happy to come back to the last good Restore Point.  I did once.  He has NOT fixed the problem.

    I also tried:

    • Using MSCONFIG to disable all the startup and Services, apart from Microsoft and Kaspersky - no improvement.
    • Do a CHKDSK - revealed nothing.
    • Start in Safe Mode, did change his behavior.  This time I do not have the Herald "Starting Windows".  But turn the machine works again once, return me the 'Windows Recovery screen '.

    Ideas anyone? I'm at my wits end.

    It's OK guys.  I have it sussed.

    He was objecting to the fact that I had my USB with my "Windows Easy Transfer" files on it, plugged during the initialization of the system.

    Also, I was wrong in my thinking on how "Windows Error Recovery".  I assumed that he would do all that it checks before proposing to do a system restore.  It is not, it suggests a restore of the system first.  If you say NO to that, then he makes his audit.

    What is finally here, is that I finally chose an option before he went into the system recovery.  Then, I waited until he was asked to do a system restore.  I said NO, so he went in it checks.  He went through his analysis and finally concluded it was some "system unspecified device" recently added.

    Well I haven't nothing added to my machine for years.  So, I was puzzled.  Then I thought ' well, I don't normally have my key USB is plugged. "  I wonder... ».  I therefore disconnected the USB drive and rebooted the machine.  The rest they say is history.

    Hope this sorry tale helps someone else.  It just cost me four days!

  • Windows Media Player does not allow me to update track information

    I have Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 8 running and when I try to update the titles of songs, artists, genre, etc.  updates do not change the actual files.  I tried everything I found previous discussions and it has not solved the problem.

    What I've done

    (1) run the Windows media player troubleshooting library and search for the question - when I run the utility troubleshooting that indicates that the database is corrupted and one erases / reconstructions it however the problem persists once the database is rebuilt.

    (2) disable and enable Windows media player using the features Windows power solution - no change to my question.

    (3) run the fixit from following link: Fix Windows Media Player videos and other media or from the library - this tool is not available for Windows 8

    (4) running %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player and then deleting all files, forcing Media Player to rebuild - worked for a very short time and then the same question. When I tried this fix the 2nd no time no change, I can't update the portion of my files.

    It's everything I could possibly find it please someone help me!

    Hi Jessica,.

    As with any database, the information that is stored in the database or the database itself can be damaged. The Windows Media Player library database can usually recover automatically from the database. However, the database may be corrupted in such a way that Windows Media Player is unable to recover the database.

    a. press the Windows key + run , type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player , and then click OK .
    b.Select allfiles in the folder and then clickdelete on the file menu.

    Note You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.

    c.restart Windows Media Player.

         Note Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

    If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files . To do this, follow these steps:

    # If you are runningWindows 8/8.1, press Windows key + run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft and then click on OK.

    # Select thefolder Media Player and then click delete on the file menu.

    # Restart Windows Media Player .

    Note Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.
