Can't select XP Wallpaper pics

[UUtopia]

I can't select any wallpaper picture besides "Bliss". No other pics
show up in the Background list, only patterns. If I use 'Browse' and
try to add another pic it doesn't work; it won't show in the preview
and 'Apply' is greyed out.

How can I fix this?

Allow Wallpaper/Background Changes

195. Restore Wallpaper Views

339. XP Web\Wallpaper Defaults
This one has all the default Wallpaper files.

If XP Pro see this...

Wes-

Thanks, I have already tried all those reg tweaks except for #142
(doesn't that DISABLE allow changes? ...sounds like the opposite of
what I'm looking for).

BTW, I'm using XP Home.

There are TWO items there...

Allow Wallpaper/Background Changes
and
Disable

Allow Wallpaper/Background Changes is wallpaperenable.reg
and
Disable is wallpaperdisable.reg

wallpaperenable.reg turns all the settings OFF or enables everything.

wallpaperdisable.reg turns all the settings ON or disables everything.

If you haven't tried wallpaperenable.reg, try it. It has a boatload of
settings.

Oh, I get it... seeing only the one underline under "Disable" threw me
- I thought there was only one link on line #142.

Anyway, I downloaded it and it worked like a champ. THANKS!!!!!!!!!

That Kellys-Korner is a great resource

Never assume. Glad you got it fixed. ;-)
