I can't get my background to change. It allows me to change colors but
doesn't allow to to use a picture as the background.
 
Right click on your desktop, choose Personalize. From the pop-up dialog box
choose Desktop Background. From that dialog box make sure Picture Location
is set to to Windows Wallpapers. Windows defaults wallpapers to
C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper.
Hope this helps.
 
i tried everything and was going crazy this worked
click start-type run
type-regedit,,,go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER,,select
software,Microsoft,Windows,CurrentVersion,Polices
then delete all folders related to wallpaper and/or activedesktop or delete
all keys
I got this off www.myfixes.com/quickfixes/fixes/25
 
this worked out great i have tried every thing under the sun and this was the
key thank goodness
