| windows 7 32 bit 12 posts | Desktop theme can be changed, but the change doesnt stick? I am temporarily filling in a position until we find a new person, and the previous person had a slideshow of American landscapes that changes every 30 minutes. I want to get back to a standard windows desktop, no slideshows. I have changed this many times, and it will stay for about 30 minutes, then it reverts back to the other stuff. Why wont it save my changes? |
