Title: Win7 won't let me set my backround?
Post by: ThatOneGuyWhoNeedsHelp on June 28, 2011, 09:02:53 PM

I can only change the color from the pre-sets. I just checked %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Themes\ and it shows the theme I set, but the theme doesn't show up on my desktop. If I delete the theme and set a new one, the new one doesn't show up, either. Anyone know the prob?

Thanks,

Zac

Go to your main Desktop where it shows your Screen

Right click

Choose personalize

On the bottom go to Desktop background

Click Picture position

And choose diffrent positions.

Your picture settings are possibly not working right. I have just Explained where to get to them

Also.. BE SURE TO HAVE THE PICTURE CHECK MARKED OR IT WILL NOT DISPLAY ON YOUR SCREEN.
