Doing this did not affect my computer in anyway. I already had the other problems that i mentioned. I completely recommend doing it if you want to fix your current problem.

how come i didn't get this type of help when mine went?
it took a couple of days before someone came up with something that made a bit of it work but not the whole thing

anyway, its fixed now

[sdoherty82]

I didn't actually post a question for this problem. I used the information given to someone else that had the same problem. Fortunately it worked.

I have had a problem for a couple months where the desktop image would not clear and the mwnu to change it was disabled. After using the link http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs...aperenable.reg it cleared it straight away. Many thanks for sorting out an annoying problem.

http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/downloads/

after you get to this page scroll down and locate cleandesktop.exe
save and run

1. Run "Regedit".


2. Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\policies


3. If you see a folder (key) "ActiveDesktop" select it. If not, make a new key and label it "ActiveDesktop".


4. If you see "NoChangingWaIiPaper", double-click the DWORD value and set it to "0". Otherwise, you need to create a new DWORD value of "NoChangingWaIiPaper" and set it to "0".


5. Try changing your wallpaper. If this fix doesn't solve the problem, you may also need to make the above registry changes at location:
HKEY _CURRENT _USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies .
