    Background problem
    « on: September 07, 2019, 08:08:01 AM »
    Hi
     I've just updated Windows 10 to 1903 causing an odd problem - when started the screen shows background picture slideshow with all my icons - so far OK
    select a browser and then a website - OK

    here's where it gets weird - if I am just reading the webpage without keystroke or mouse input for a few minutes the screen will suddenly revert to background picture(s) with NO icons or taskbar - just the background

    I can restore the webpage and icons by a keystroke or mouse movement but still a major irritation - does anyone know what causes this and how it can be cured - I've no malware or virus problems

    any help would be appreciated

      Hi lostcoast

      thanks for your reply - yes I've tried that - even with no picture just colour and without a webpage - same result so I've gone back to 1809 - I may try again in future

      thanks again
