Wallpaper problems Cannot change

If you have a problem in changing your desktop wallpaper it is most certainly caused by a virus and at best some Spyware

What they have done is to have malformed the Registry

Sadly if this happens, you have to approach the dragon again

So first implement My tip from the First Edition

Note you must be an Administrator to perform this tip.

Go to :‐

Start > Run In the box type without the quotes “ Regedit “

Scroll to:‐

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ Windows\

CurrentVersion\policies

Look for a folder (key) ʺActiveDesktopʺ select it.

If not present you need to make a new key and label it ʺActiveDesktopʺ.

look for ʺNoChangingWallPaperʺ, double‐click the DWORD value and set it to ʺ0ʺ.

Again if not present you need to create a new DWORD value of ʺNoChangingWallPaperʺ and set it to ʺ0ʺ.

Now try changing your wallpaper.

If this fix doesnʹt solve the problem, you may also need to make the above

Registry changes at:‐

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion \Policies.
