Wallpaper Sizing Won't Readjust
Nov 3, 2009
My computer shut down and when it re-booted the icons were SUPER LARGE and the picture wall paper I had is enormous now. I was able to get the icons back to normal but the wallpaper won't readjust. I have Vista 64-bit. In the old computer, all I had to do was right click and the properties box would open and I would just re-adjust the pixel size but this computer is different.

Why after decades of Windows development won't opened windows maintain their set positions but instead continue to revert to other positions? In the case of IE the window size does remain a constant but something continues to upset its position. The position upset is not caused by closing the first instance of a window down first before other instances of IE for instance--that always upsets the first instance position of the window. I think there are many things that come along more important to spend man-hours on fixing but ignoring a real solution to something this obvious for so long a time I cannot condone. Size and position of a primary window's location ought to stick as sure as one's Home Page remains what you have set for it.
Equally annoying and unexplained is why some windows like MSConfig that can display a number of columns of data depending on what you are looking at in it have never been able to resize (or position) at all to properly display the data.
For me these are two really disgusting oversights. I wonder why, if Windows has a Registry that no one seems to care how it gets used or how large it grows, it can't be used to lock in window locations, sizing, expansion, configuration, etc. data, and keep these window parameters from reverting back to something less?

I've been running Vista now for over a year and ever since I made the switch, I've been annoyed, by how Vista deals with Wallpaper. I'm on using a widescreen monitor, with vista, it doesnt' resize the image to fit without stretching it. With XP, it would resize it while maintaining its proportions, but I can't seem to find a way to do that with vista.

I like to have Animated/flash wallpapers, in Windows XP i could do that with some tools/programs, but now with windows vista, i just can't get this to work. I tried several programs, but none of them worked. Is it possible to use flash wallpapers in windows vista? and if so, how to do it.

I really want to be able to have an SWF file as a wallpaper in vista (I got a killer idea) but I cant get it to work. Theres many programs to do it, but they are all for XP and before. A way I could do it would be to put it in html, but then that only works for XP and before too.

When I used to change my wallpaper I had 5 options to fit the image to the screen, cant remember them exactly but they were something like; Stretch to screen, fit horizontal, fit vertical, centered, and tiled. Why is it now that I only have; Centered, Tiled and stretch to screen?
Was this an update because this is really annoying!? It was much easier to fit the wallpaper to screen without stretching it when I could fit horizontal and vertical? Why can I not do this now?

Using Vista for the first time - lotsa little annoyances, but nothing I don't thing I can handle or deal with except... Whenever I shut down and restart, my wallpaper is gone. It's a simple JPG downloaded from the internet. I keep a few dozen in a folder and change them as the whim hits. Any idea why it doesn't remain in place a after a reboot?

I didn't seem to find a solution for this issue. I have a wallpaper that's 1280x800 and that's my monitor's resolution as well. I tried to have it "fit to screen" but the wallpaper ends up being at the upper left side of my screen (cutting part of the wallpaper). I've also tried the other available options tiling and centering but they all came out to be the same. I have to change the resolution every time I turn on my laptop in order for it to actually fit to the screen; change 1280 to another resolution and then change it back again to 1280 for it to actually fit. But even still this option doesn't really cover my entire screen (2nd picture: Top part

I'm wondering if it's ok to Delete any of the stock wallpapers that were included in Vista? I've found one of the folders which has a few that I have no use of, but still haven't located the other folder. I think there's at least 2, maybe? I'm thinking about downloading some new wallpapers and wanted to clear out some extra space. Also, when I get new wallpapers, can I add them directly to the Windows Wallpaper folder?

I want to put one of my own pictures, centered as my desktop wallpaper. I can get the picture there ok, but if I try to set it as centered, all I get is the center of the picture as the wallpaper. If I try to tile the picture I get the top left hand corner of the picture as the wallpaper. It seems to be tiling or centering the screen on my picture, instead of tiling or centering my picture on the screen! Has anyone else come across this problem?

I'm trying to change the way a wallpaper is displayed on the desktop (i.e. Stretch, Tile, Centred) but I can't. The wallpaper is always displayed stretched out and I can't change it to be tiled or centred.
The way I'm doing this (to no avail) is obviously to right-click the desktop, then choose "Personalize", then click on "Desktop Background", then click one of the three radio buttons at the bottom (in this case, either of the two on the right), then click "OK".

1. Windows Vista Home Premium wanted me to update so I did.
2. Update changed my desktop giving me new icons and a new wallpaper. But my files in My Pictures and My Documents were missing.
3. I used the Start Search to locate them and cut-pasted them into the My Pictures and My Documents folders in the new interface.
4. I shutdown my computer after I was done using it.
5. I turned on my computer again and Windows reverted back to the older (pre-update) interface.
6. I checked and to my luck the My Pictures and My Documents folders were empty again........

I just cleared my desktop because it was absolutely cluttered with icons and stuff, but now it's like the Icons are part of the wallpaper, because I can't click on them, can't drag them, and if I drag a different icon over it it's still there underneath the other one.
