desktop tab in display properties disappeared

[sistersinhim]

I went to change my wallpaper and I have no desktop tab any more. It's been
awhile since I changed it, so I have no idea when it disappeared. I went to
the regedit and went through all the sequences that was suggested to change
the wallpaper, but I still don't have the tab. Any suggestions?
