Cannot load wallpaper..

Thursday, December 18, 2003 by Sosiosh | Discussion: Stardock Software

For some reason I cannot load wallpaper from Theme Manager, desktop properties or from the download site. I have not expeienced this problem in the past. I can load a new wallpaper by going to My Pictures and opening in fax viewer the right click and :set as desktop background (XP Pro) but then it doesn't stick when I log off and back on again. If it does stay there it seem immovable.

Does anyone know if there is some checkbox I may have selected or unselected that woud cause this? I have WinBrowser, FX, Logon, Cursor XP, Object Desktop, I have Theme Manager set to defaults...

OK, here is what I did: I uninstalled WinStyles in the Stardock Browser, closed the Stardock Browser, opened the browser and went to the software section (I found Theme Manager had also been uninstalled), reinstalled WinStyles and Theme manager, Restart (x2 for update as well). It all works fine now!

Spoke too soon, I still cannot load wallpaper from the Browse in my desktop properties or from the WinStyles tab using the Theme Manager. It's like the wallpaper is locked; however, the wallpaper stays after logging off and on now.... Can anyone help me on this?
