I set a picture as my back ground by right clicking on it from its folder and now
I can't get back to having no picture for a back ground?

When I right click on the desk top I get Intel Graphics Media window but there's no option for having no picture for a wall paper. I can pic other pictures for a back ground but I don't want any?

Right click on the desktop, click properties, desktop tab...under background, select none, click apply

There is no desktop tab, only themes, appearance and settings?

Deadhorse, Go to the link below and scroll down to line 285 (right column) and click on "Restore All Display Tabs" to download a reg file fix. Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it and answer yes to the import prompt.

"Set the radio button to Not Configured then click OK"

I don't understand this part?

Deadhorse, IMO the simplest solution is to follow the instructions in my Response Number 4, and when you have all the tabs back then right click on the desktop, click properties, desktop tab...under background, select none, click Apply/OK as shown in jam's Response Number 1.

Deadhorse, If you downloaded that reg file fix and merged it into the registry try restarting your computer and see if the missing tabs are back.
