I've just had to do a factory restore on my laptop to clean it up and now I've reloaded everything I can't seem to change the desktop background. Well, I can set a different picture, but I can't change the settings for stretch, centre etc. I can access them and try but when I click on save nothing happens.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a user with a Windows 7 64 bit machine on our domain. A few days ago he recieved a nasty malware virus and we removed it with our virus tools. However, his desktop is not the way it use to be before the malware. The obvious problem being his desktop background is black and it does not change. When I try to change it in control panel to Architecture or Landscapes, nothing happens, just the color of the taskbar changes. Also, Ive noticed that his "Accessories" folder is missing.I tried adjusting settings in the Ease of Access section, but still does not work.

View 1 Replies View Relatedhow can I get the shortcut back? My desktop background didn't want to change (it went to black, and stayed black no matter what), so I decided to do a System Restore. I went to the start menu, all programs, accessories, system tools.No system restore. Missing.I did manage to do the good ol' F8 trick while starting Windows to use the system restore; backed up to my programs from yesterday. My desktop background decided to start working again, so one less loose end.I don't fancy going through my system32 folder just to restore, so can someone tell me how to get rstrui.exe back in my system tools folder as a shortcut?

View 9 Replies View RelatedSo I had the "Windows Repair" virus. I succesfully removed it with MalwareBites and Ad Aware and everything seems to be working fine, with exception to my desktop background. It's pitch black.When I try to change it through personalize ->desktop backgrounds nothing happens, I can only change my background to some collor, for example from all black to all white etc.When I open My Themes folder, it's totally empty.When I try opening a picture and pushing "set as background image" it says : "the image can't be set as background. Internal error occured".Also, I don't know if it's relevant, but the virus hid some files, like my documents and internet explorer shortcut and so on. I used unhider.exe to unhide them. Also scanned my computer a couple of more times and there's no trace of adware or viruses anymore.However, I also noticed Windows Repair file can't be located, and I don't have the windows disk ( It's a Toshiba Satellite, which doesn't come with a windows cd). So frustrating..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI tried everything I can think of to change the desk top back ground but it just stays the same- Windows 7- picture. So not sure what to do now or if it is a fix from microsoft that has to be done? I did follow all the right instructions to do the change but with no change. The Theme will change when I click on it but not the back ground. Read tutials and treads and made sure I was doing it right and all settings were right but still no good!! It really isn't that big of a deal but if it's suppose to work why not on my brand new computer and operating system?

I changed my settings somehow when I first purchased my new laptop, which is running Windows 7.I wanted to turn off my desktop background and succeeded. Unfortunately, I can't get any backgrounds to display now. I have tried going into control panel and changing the background there and the icon in "personalization" changes and shows the thumbnail of the image I am trying to set as my background. However, my desktop remains black.
