Hi there, today when i turned on my computer, i noticed the background colour on my desktop, was black, and it is normally blue...im not sure if i touched anything on my desktop, possibly clicking active desktop by mistake? Would this have changed the colour, for the background? I am running windows 98 se...thanks..antoniette
You may not have 'touched' anything to cause this. Just right-click an open space on your desktop; Point to Properties; Under the General tab use the scroll bar to and point/click choose the background you want; Click Apply - None is an option.
Under the Appearance tab, you can also change the size of the desktop icons and the text size under them, if they are too large or too small for you. 32 or 48 are the recommended numbers for changing the icon size.
Make sure to click Apply after making any changes in the Appearance tab.
