Strange wallpaper problem...

EvilFranky · 9 Jul 2009 at 15:42

Tried Googling but came up with nothing.

When ever I exit the desktop to a full screen game (it may happen with other fullscreen programs...) then return to the desktop, my wallpaper resets to a default 'plain blue' Windows colour.

It's fixed by going to right click, personalize etc...

Anyone else come across this problem?

Edit: Sorry, meant to state this is on Vista Ultimate x64

Not sure, but is the folder with the wallpapers in protected in some way? Or does it do it with Window's defaults?

Never tried with the Windows defaults to be honest but will try. Don't think the folder they are in has any other security settings as per the normal for my Documents folder.

I'll check both of these in tomorrow

Have you tried hitting F5 on the desktop to see if that restores it?
